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, click-driven survival game where each decision feels like a gamble with your last breath.

What players say

Players compare it to CloverPit but say it feels like an early prototype. The game is split into two chapters, with the second shifting into horror, but many find the first chapter repetitive and lacking meta-progression. Reviews also mention bugs, unbalanced currency, and a curse system that can ruin runs. Opinions are divided on the difficulty and the overall polish.
