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.

A tense, atmospheric first-person exploration through a suburban gas station at night, where ordinary part-time work unravels into psychological horror and supernatural mystery.

What players say

Players appreciate the unsettling atmosphere and story, but many report the game launched with frequent bugs that block progress. The 2-3 hour playthrough is praised for its music and narrative over cheap scares, though some find the horror too sparse.
