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 nostalgic, low-stakes tower defense adventure with a retro 80s aesthetic and a cooperative, kid-empowering feel.

What players say

Players describe it as a shorter, easier, and more linear spin-off of the Kingdom series, with a runtime around 4 to 8 hours. The 80s theme and added story are generally well received, though some note it lacks mechanics from other entries and that local coop was added only after a year.
