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 moody, slow-burn horror adventure set in pixel art, where exploration and puzzle-solving in an abandoned hospital creates a constant sense of dread.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and voice acting, but split on the puzzles: some call them logical and fun, others say they rely on moon logic and random item placement. The story feels underdeveloped and it is very short, around two hours, though there are multiple endings. Achievements do not work on Linux and Steam Deck.
