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
It's a weird, word-driven dungeon crawl where you type to interact with puzzles, battle quirky foes, and unlock lore, all wrapped in a surreal, darkly comic tone.

What players say
Players praise the clever word-based combat and riddles, but many say the novelty fades after a few hours due to repetitive room-after-room structure. Opinions split on the cryptic later puzzles and a sharp difficulty jump in the third area.
