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 creep through a dim, cluttered house, avoiding a cannibalistic fisherman while solving randomly placed puzzles to find escape tools.

What players say

Players compare Fisherman's House to Granny, calling it a clone that only has the basics. Some enjoy the cat-and-mouse tension and atmosphere, but many report the monster AI frequently gets stuck, breaking the challenge. Reviews are split on whether development was abandoned: some say updates come slowly, others claim no updates since 2022.
