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 navigate a haunted mansion under constant threat, solving puzzles and fighting horror entities while unraveling a dark narrative.

What players say

Players call House of Evil a shoddily assembled asset flip with a nonsensical story, though some find the puzzles workable. Performance is terrible, the translation is poor, and the game crashes frequently. A few players say it is worth a laugh on deep sale.
