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 quiet, meditative walk through disquieting liminal spaces where the emptiness itself is the focus.

What players say

Players praise the liminal backrooms atmosphere and impressive graphics for a solo effort, but many agree the early access build is thin, just three levels, with clunky controls and no sensitivity settings that trigger motion sickness. Monsters are too fast and find the player quickly, while the content feels more like a demo than a full release.
