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 claustrophobic Soviet bunker, haunted by paranoia and unclear threats, fighting to escape into daylight.

What players say

Players praise the Soviet atmosphere but find the puzzles obscure and often require a walkthrough. Many mention pixel-hunting for tiny objects in dark scenes, and some report technical issues like crashes and poor performance on modern machines.
