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 tense retro survival horror where you desperately try to escape a cannibal family's farmhouse, inspired by 80s slasher films.

What players say

Players describe a very short retro horror game, often comparing it to Outlast or PS1 Resident Evil, where a stalker chases you through a house. Many say to start on hard mode for the intended challenge, as the default difficulty makes it too easy and short. The tank controls and fixed camera get mixed reactions, with some calling them clunky.
