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 methodical and lore-heavy investigation across fractured timelines, driven by dense text and pixel-art atmosphere rather than action.

What players say

Players describe it as a single-player CoC-style RPG that automates the tabletop experience but carries incomplete translation and clunky combat. The story and multiple endings are a strong point, though some feel the Lovecraftian horror is undercut by heavy anime aesthetics. Community is engaged through mods and requesting co-op.
