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 explore a dark, haunted hotel at your own pace, reading notes and piecing together a grim mystery while a lurking supernatural threat keeps the atmosphere tense.

What players say

Players finish it in about 1.5 hours and call it a decent value horror, but opinions split on quality. Some praise the detailed environments and story for a solo dev, while others report early-access bugs, choppy frame rates or a confusing police chase sequence that loops into death.
