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 quiet, lonely desk-job simulation in a satirical dystopia, where you tick boxes and assemble a boat between spam emails and surreal virtual escapes.

What players say

Players describe this as a walking simulator with almost nothing to do, comparing it to an asset flip or a developer's portfolio dumped on Steam. Reviews split on whether it has any satirical value: some call it an atmospheric dystopian stroll with minigames, others say it is a buggy, pointless mashup of store assets with zero story.
