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 first-person hike through unknown wilderness toward an abandoned house, where you uncover a family's dark story through found letters and survive sudden threats.

What players say

Players call it a short indie horror from a debut developer. It has multiple endings and jumpscares, but also slow movement, finicky doors, and bugs that force restarts.
