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 and atmospheric survival horror exploration game where you navigate a damned pyramid while being hunted, with simple gameplay and a focus on story and atmosphere.

What players say

Players call Dark Egypt an asset flip built with GameGuru that crashes constantly, especially when loading a manual save after dying. The runtime is around 15 minutes and there is no real story, though the game does have Steam Trading Cards.
