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

You walk through unsettling rooms, noticing changes while the tension slowly rises, supported by sudden loud sounds that make you feel a lot of fear.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, P.T.-inspired walking sim that takes about an hour to finish, with a story told through radio broadcasts. Most praise the jump scares and atmosphere, but many criticize the abrupt ending and repetitive early gameplay. Several reviewers note the lack of a save system and issues with visual settings like blur and bloom.
