The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A frantic and tense 5v1 hunt where players either stalk or flee through a carnival setting.

What players say

Players split on balance: bunnies dominate at high MMR while hunters get nerfed patch after patch, leaving few killer players and long queues. Newcomers struggle with confusing maps and solo play, though some praise the atmosphere and movement, comparing it to Dead by Daylight but with more map control.
