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 quiet, lonely walk through a war-torn landscape, where the tension of the battlefield gives way to moments of somber reflection.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art, atmospheric sound design, and story, though some find the puzzles challenging. The game has no highlight option, so you have to pixel-hunt for clues. Players are split on the difficulty.
