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

Navigating a trap-filled castle maze feels tense and unforgiving, with each choice potentially leading to sudden death and respawning at checkpoints.

What players say

Players describe this as a puzzle game where you die repeatedly from hidden traps and must memorize the level layout to progress. Reviews split on difficulty: some find it brutally hard, others say it gets easy once memorized. The game takes about 3-4 hours to beat and is praised as good for streamers, though some call the later sections pixel-perfect and unfair.
