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, richly written detective mystery steeped in gothic atmosphere and supernatural dread, with thoughtful puzzle-solving and pixelated exploration.

What players say
Players love the story, voice acting from Tim Curry and Mark Hamill, and the voodoo mystery. However, they warn of frustrating Sierra-style puzzles that often require walkthroughs, and outdated pixel hunting. The port has audio popping and some users need DOSBox config tweaks.
