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

Trapped in a possessed house, you must solve puzzles and scavenge for items while facing a constant, unsettling dread.

What players say

Players describe Clausum as a short escape-room horror game with dark environments and jump scares. The key items are hard to spot, especially in the dim candlelight, and opinions split on whether the constant monster scares help or hurt the atmosphere. The game has multiple endings.
