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 quiet, methodical journey of piecing together meaning through symbols while stranded in an unfamiliar, mysterious land.

About
An alien astronaut crash lands on a mysterious island. Stranded and unable to speak the local language, he slowly learns to communicate with others through a conversation system similar to emoji or pictographs.
