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 vibrant yet unnerving stealth horror game where you hide from monstrous eyeballs while soaked in existential dread and soothing ambient music.

What players say

Players describe a very short, colorful horror game with a quirky premise of avoiding floating eyes. Many praise its unique atmosphere but note that the game is often obtuse, with unclear objectives and a difficulty spike in the cave level that frustrated some. Players are split on the secret hunting, with some enjoying it and others finding it tedious.
