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 slow-burn, unsettling horror visual novel where you passively witness a girl's descent into an internet cult's terrifying grip.

What players say

Players describe a short, free psychological horror visual novel that explores internet mythology and trauma through a surreal art style. Many appreciate the hidden secrets but some find the story too brief and disjointed, with mixed opinions on how well it delivers on its ambitious themes.
