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, puzzle-driven survival horror where every chase feels like a strategic game of tag through an ever-changing school.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere, sound design, and monster designs, but many complain about a single save point on the first floor and a frustrating third floor section. The story is considered decent, though some find it shallow or chaotic.
