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

You feel the isolation and urgency of a lone astronaut solving intricate puzzles aboard a drifting spaceship as a black hole looms closer.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy the challenging puzzles and tense atmosphere, while others find the game too dark, lacking brightness options, and report a game-breaking bug with a planets puzzle that prevents completion. Some also note the short length and minimal direction.
