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 challenging 2D tower defense game where gravity and unique tower abilities force careful strategic planning.

What players say

Players praise the fresh push-and-bounce tower mechanics and compare it to classics like Plants vs. Zombies. The difficulty is divisive: later levels spike sharply and demand precise placement, while early stages feel too easy.
