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

You play a live-action detective thriller where your investigation and quick decisions drive a tense, darkly psychological narrative.

What players say

Players are split on this FMV mystery. Some enjoy the story and multiple endings for a low price, but many more say the acting is bad, the writing is poor, and the game is very short at under 90 minutes. The game ends on a cliffhanger and players disagree on whether it is worth the time.
