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

You feel trapped in a dark school at midnight, constantly turning around to face vengeful spirits in a tense, atmospheric survival horror experience.

What players say

Players praise the multiple endings and explore-and-find-key-items gameplay, but nearly everyone notes the lack of a save system forces full restarts, which grates. Many also say the salt item makes the game less scary once obtained, and several report bugs like clipping or hit-detection problems.
