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, atmospheric shooter with retro exploration and puzzle solving in a small, unnerving town.

What players say

Players praise the art and low price, but are split on the game: many find the combat clunky, the puzzles tedious, and the story vague, while others enjoy the atmosphere and multiple endings. The map is criticized as too large without guidance.
