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 campy, low-budget retelling of classic horror comedies, mixing tense survival moments with over-the-top action and dark humor.

What players say

Players call it a short, janky homage to Evil Dead 1 and 2, with amateurish voice acting and simple gameplay. Performance problems and bugs are common, but fans of the series enjoy the cheesy charm and low price.
