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 fast-paced tower defense game with retro pixel visuals and strategic deckbuilding, where you deploy units and crush enemy bases in comical battles.

What players say

Players say the game is abandoned with no updates for almost two years, and the multiplayer is dead. It is seen as grindy with an unreasonable difficulty spike that forces farming, and a downgrade from the mobile original that lacks many units and quality-of-life features.
