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 hand-drawn 2D puzzle-platformer where you solve environmental puzzles by pinning and unpinning objects in a dark, storybook-like world.

What players say
Players praise the hand-drawn art style and creepy atmosphere, but note it is short, about two hours. The puzzles are accessible rather than difficult, and the thumbtack mechanic is highlighted as innovative. Comparisons to Limbo, Braid, and Gris come up often.
