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

You move through strange, quiet woods as a nimble thief, stalking a god with careful jumps and thoughtful stealth, the world around you feeling both ancient and uncanny.

What players say

Players praise the first act's stealth and movement but warn that act two shifts to frustrating, unexplained puzzles. The game is short and best bought on sale, especially for fans of the sequel Gutter World.
