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 strategic blend of auto-chess and tower defense where you build a team of allies and relics to push back a dream invasion.

What players say

Players enjoy the combination of auto-chess and tower defense, praising the diverse synergies and boss rush mode. However, many note a steep difficulty spike in later stages, a short main campaign around 6 hours with no endless mode, and poorly translated Chinese text. The game requires multiple runs and grinding to progress but remains addictive for its strategic variety.
