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

A tense, first-person factory sim where you frantically maintain machinery under looming dread.

What players say

Players say the core loop of keeping a factory running under threat of being eaten is addictive, though the physics are unpredictable and the driving sections feel clunky. The boss's behavior draws criticism, and some joke the game is a vore simulator.
