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 slow, story-driven point-and-click adventure where your decisions shape a medieval tale of struggle and cathedral-building.

What players say
Players call it an interactive audiobook or visual novel more than a game, with a slow and grounded medieval story lifted by excellent voice acting and oil-painted art. Many say choices are less impactful than they seem and the ending feels abrupt. There is also mention of some characters feeling one-dimensional and a blank screen bug near the end.
