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 competitive and tactical RTS where players start on equal footing and outthink opponents to conquer.

What players say

Players describe it as a fast-paced Risk-like RTS without dice rolls. The core gameplay is simple and fun, but multiplayer is dead and matches fill with bots after a short wait. Some note it feels like a mobile game, with a cash shop and quirks like no pause in single player or cosmetic-only gun units.
