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 quiet, lonely exploration through a frozen world, heavy with melancholy but carried by a thread of cautious hope.

What players say
Players praise the writing and characters, especially a well-handled implied autistic love interest. The game is short but emotionally intense, with a difficult moral choice at the end that can leave players sobbing. Many note it is very sapphic, and some warn it might be too heavy if you are not in a good headspace.
