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

Navigating a hostile town through sound and fragmented perception, each day a tense struggle to stay alive and sane while balancing grim quests and self-destructive habits.

What players say

Players describe the game as a broken but fascinating idea that barely runs, often requiring manual DLL fixes. The audio navigation is non-functional and the player dies immediately from talking to a hobo, though some find the chaos funny or even life-changing.
