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 tense, lonely survival journey through atmospheric forests and caves, where every creature and trap demands cautious movement.

What players say

Players compare it to Limbo but say it is more combat-focused and far more punishing, with a notorious difficulty spike at the final boss. Controls and physics are debated, with some calling them slippery and frustrating, while others find them fine after practice. Atmosphere and art style are widely praised.
