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 solitary journey through an atmospheric world, driven by exploration and narrative discovery.

What players say
Players praise the art, soundtrack, and cyberpunk atmosphere, often comparing it to Disco Elysium. The story is short, around 8-10 hours, and can end early with no chapter replay. The dice system is fun but can cause softlocks, and bugs like blank screens and text scaling are common.
