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

A tense and surreal third-person puzzle game set in a dreamy nightmarish hospital, where you navigate danger and solve puzzles to escape.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere but are split on recommending the game because several report a softlock bug that makes the final timed puzzle unwinnable. It is a short student project from DigiPen.
