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
Navigating a strange, hand-drawn alien world where quiet exploration of intricate puzzles gives way to bursts of frantic combat with bizarre creatures.

What players say
Players praise the striking art style and exploration in this short metroidvania, but many find its mechanics underutilized and some puzzles frustratingly obtuse. The game leaves a strong impression despite its rough edges, with most finishing in 4 to 9 hours.
