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 frantically combine spell modules on the fly to annihilate screen-filling monster hordes in a chaotic, empowering loop.

What players say

Players enjoy the spell crafting system and find it addictive, but split on the game's value. Many say it is light on content and the game engine slows to a crawl with many projectiles. Some criticize the balancing, useless spell modifiers, and uneven boss difficulty.
