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 tense and atmospheric first-person survival horror experience set in a grim, lore-rich research facility where players fight for answers and survival.

What players say

Players are split on this budget horror shooter. Some praise its atmosphere and creative level design for a tiny team, while others call it unplayable due to terrible AI, pitch-black darkness that requires monitor adjustments, long loading screens, and low-quality cutscenes. The GameGuru engine jank is a constant point, and multiple reviewers stress saving frequently to avoid losing progress.
