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, atmospheric psychological horror puzzle game where you read notes and solve locks to blur the line between reality and delusion.

What players say
Players see potential but warn that Karakuru is too early in development to recommend. The current build lasts about 20 to 30 minutes, suffers from bugs and crashes, and has severe performance issues even on a 3060. The flashlight barely lights the way, which players say makes the game feel like torture rather than horror.
