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 murky psychological horror mystery set on a fog-shrouded island, where you explore a hostile dreamlike world alongside a rag puppet companion.

What players say

Players praise the mystery, atmosphere, and the companion puppet Arthur, but many find the story falls apart toward the end. Some dislike frustrating platforming and chase sections, and several report motion sickness from head bob and camera work.
