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 short, introspective blend of puzzle-solving and pixelated dread, where every creature and riddle mirrors the protagonist's trauma.

What players say
Players praise the oppressive atmosphere and story about sexual trauma, but many point out bugs, poor optimization, and difficulty balancing that makes some puzzles feel unfair.
