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

You sit back and watch your incompetent minions automatically conquer the world, managing upgrades and treasures with minimal effort.

What players say

Players call this a lightweight desktop idle game with clear progression through 1000 areas and prestige runs for permanent bonuses. Many appreciate that it runs passively at the bottom of the screen and requires almost no attention, though some say upgrades feel limited and long-term progression slows down.
