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

You wield reality-bending powers in an eerie, shifting office building, fighting off a sinister force with a mix of anxiety and empowerment.

What players say

Players praise the world-building and lore but find the storytelling fragmented and hard to follow. Combat starts fun but grows repetitive, and the map is widely criticized for making navigation frustrating. PC players report persistent texture streaming problems even years after release.
