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 deliberately mundane first-person walk through oddly detailed weirdness, evoking a dry, awkward sense of the imperfect and the everyday.

What players say

Players describe it as a surreal art game that is more toy than traditional game, with deliberately mundane and frustrating rooms that somehow stay entertaining. They highlight the ability to sniff objects and the fun of creating chaotic scenes, though unlocks do not save between sessions.
