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 tense, atmospheric survival horror in VR where you explore a haunting manor during WWII, solving puzzles while evading threats.

What players say

A VR psychological horror with a strong British horror atmosphere and a memorable opening that strips you of power. Players are split: some praise the scares and worldbuilding, while others struggle with finicky controls, bugs, and poor performance even on high-end hardware.
