What players say
Players describe Catalyst as an audio-driven story about a psychiatrist analyzing a patient's recorded sessions. The voice acting and atmosphere are praised, but the ending is criticized for being unclear and lacking a proper conclusion. Some players found the narrative thought provoking and engaging enough to finish in one sitting.
