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 slow, atmospheric first-person exploration through a dead city, blending psychological unease with a story-driven, puzzle-focused walking experience.

What players say

Players say the game is extremely short, around 10 to 30 minutes, with only two endings and no real puzzles. It relies on atmosphere and jumpscares but many find it more laughable than scary. Some note reused assets from the developer's other game Centralia. Performance issues like fps drops and ultra-wide problems are reported.
