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 slow, tense crawl through a dark pixel-art dungeon where limited sight and puzzle-solving create a feeling of isolated, deliberate exploration.

What players say

Players praise the game's strong atmosphere built from a custom 3D engine with striking light and shadow, comparing it to old SNES action-RPGs. It is a short twin-stick shooter with puzzle elements and lethal enemies that add challenge, though some players note occasional crash bugs and a lack of saving.
