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

Walking through a haunted house where you know scares are coming, but the exact moment and type catch you off guard each time.

What players say

Players collect 50 jump scares across a building, with over 100 types possible. The player is invincible and a warning mode helps those who scare easily, though some say it barely helps. Playtime is around 30–50 minutes per run, and while the price is low, hunting every scare takes patience as updates have not made full completion easy.
