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 tinker and build siege machines in a relaxed, sandbox environment, then watch them smash castles in first-person.

What players say

Players finish the game in about 5 hours. They like the concept but find the mechanics janky, the destruction unsatisfying, and the physics limited. Some report that the catapult aiming is broken. Building and inventory have bugs. The free mode after the story is also buggy.
