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 text-driven puzzle-platformer with a darkly atmospheric, hand-drawn art style and a focus on exploration and psychological horror.

What players say
Players praise the unique atmosphere and clever puzzles but note bugs, unskippable text, and a steep learning curve for newcomers. The voice acting for Faust stands out, while others are poor. The horror mode is initially scary but becomes a waiting game.
