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

Slow, tense, and methodical, rewarding careful planning and patience over fast action.

What players say

Players call this the peak of the classic Hitman games, praising its puzzle-like missions and the freedom to eliminate targets in creative ways. The notoriety system and newspaper recaps are standouts, but the PC version lacks achievements and may need fixes for 1080p and a 60fps cap.
