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

Two players must coordinate closely to navigate an underwater abyss, solving puzzles and reacting to threats in a tense, atmospheric race for survival.

What players say

Players are polarized: many couples enjoy it as a short co-op puzzle game, but others criticize the voice acting as AI-sounding or terrible, and find the puzzles tedious with frustrating instant-death sharks that reset progress. The story gets called either compelling or nonsensical.
