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 quiet, reflective exploration of identity and connection in a polished yet haunting virtual world, where your daily interactions blend seamlessly with your digital doppelgänger's autonomous life.

What players say

Players spend 60-90 minutes chatting with an AI named Ellie on a locked-down social platform, unpacking two mysteries. They appreciate the thoughtful story and Y2K aesthetic but some find the interface confusing and the plot predictable.
