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 dark, top-down pixel art game where you navigate a zombie-infested post-apocalyptic world, solving puzzles and surviving as part of a unique relay-style narrative crafted by five different creators.

What players say

Players praise the value for the low price and the novelty of five chapters made by different people. Chapters 2 and 5 are where the difficulty spikes, and some players switch to story mode to get through chapter 2. There are complaints about fast text and unusual default controls.
