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
Exploring a lucid, dreamlike world with a camera, solving puzzles while navigating a quiet, unsettling ghostly residence.

What players say
Players call it a short, atmospheric horror adventure from the same developer as Distraint, with easy puzzles solved using an in-game camera. Reviews are split on the story and ending: some find it emotionally thin or confusing, others appreciate the vague themes of loss. Jump scares are present but the game is not very frightening.
