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 patrol a dark, realistic city at night, solving mysteries through tense exploration and dialogue choices while trying not to become the next missing person.

What players say

Fans of the CASE series say this entry is a letdown with frequent bugs, including a softlock at the introductory VHS tape. Players compare it unfavorably to Fears to Fathom, noting the stalker AI is easy to exploit by hiding behind walls. The game is short, around 1-2 hours, with multiple endings, but polish issues like unloadable saves and optimization problems are common complaints.
