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

playing this feels like solving a cryptic, atmospheric puzzle in a tense but unhurried first-person space, alone or with friends.

What players say

Players are split on this free escape room. Some enjoy co-op puzzling and a surprisingly dark story, but many find the hints useless and the puzzles illogical. The first level is broken and replaced with an instant-achievement button, while controls feel clunky.
