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 contemplative and emotional precision puzzle-platformer where you control a voodoo doll and its ghost, timing actions to solve challenges in a sorrowful forest.

What players say
Players praise the art and soundtrack and enjoy the ghost-based puzzle mechanic, but many find the controls clunky and floaty, making precision platforming frustrating. The mechanic is not explained in-game, leading to trial and error. Players split on whether the puzzles are satisfying or poorly executed.
