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, time-pressured puzzle game where you scramble to explore a house and jot clues on your arm before blacking out, only to find the notes have changed.

What players say

The game's core mechanic of writing notes on your arm is broken because it relied on a now-defunct online service, leaving players unable to see their own notes or finish the game. It is very short, about 15 to 20 minutes, and some puzzles glitch, forcing restarts each 5-minute loop.
