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, meditative late-night journey through abstract landscapes where small conversations open doors to your own thoughts.

What players say

Players are divided on Glitchhikers. Some find it a relaxing, introspective journey through liminal spaces, while others call the writing pretentious and the conversations one-note and shallow. The game offers no real goals, only dialogue and atmosphere.
