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.

A tense descent through dark corridors where careful puzzle-solving and monster encounters mix with detective work.

What players say

Players describe a simple 2D arcade game where you clear rooms and fight bosses through pixel-art labyrinths. Many find the monsters tough, noting that enemies feel too thick and require heavy effort to kill.
