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 somber first-person journey through a rural Vietnamese landscape, exploring heavy themes of domestic strife and addiction with a deliberate, reflective pace.

What players say

Players consistently report the game lacks a save system and quest guidance, making progress frustrating when crashing or restarting. Optimization is poor even on high-end GPUs, and items have misaligned hitboxes. A few praise the setting and story, but most find the core loop of fetching items with no direction tedious.
