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.

What players say

Players say David Slade Mysteries is a rare VR detective game that demands real thinking, with no handholding and tough but logical puzzles. Some find it janky with poor visuals and finicky controls, while others praise its atmospheric noir setting and forensic detail. Reviews split on execution, but most recommend it to fans of the genre.
