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 compare it to Nightmare of Decay and classic Resident Evil, saying it is a competent survival horror game with strong map design and rewarding exploration. The biggest complaints are the slow movement speed and janky controls, while many praise the difficulty settings and the manual map system.
