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 slow-burn detective horror where you piece together clues from grisly crime scenes and interrogate suspects, all while an old trauma threatens to resurface.

What players say
Players praise the story and atmosphere, especially the Lovecraftian horror and pixel art. The game is short with multiple endings and a novel dialog system, though some find the puzzles uninspired and the body horror art inconsistent. It evokes classic Wadjet Eye adventures.
