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 meme-fueled, arcade-style tactical raid where you lead a chaotic army of fans against increasingly tough soldiers, balancing silly hype points and unit combos for a frantic, humorous challenge.

What players say

Players describe Legion 51 as a fun but very short game, lasting about 30 minutes. The strategy is light, but it offers some entertainment. However, many report that half the achievements are broken and the developer has not updated the game or responded to bug reports for about a year.
