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, nerve-wracking game of stealth and survival as you navigate a dark forest while being hunted by an unrelenting beast.

What players say

Players are sharply divided on Gevaudan. Many call it an asset flip with no settings, a confusing objective, and a monster that appears without warning, making it feel unfinished. A few find the atmosphere genuinely creepy and the beast scary, but even they note the lack of guidance and polish.
