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 methodical yet intense blend of factory automation and real-time tower defense that feels like solving a complex puzzle under constant pressure.

What players say
Players love the mix of tower defense and factory automation, calling it addictive and deep. They note that enemies will bypass walls, forcing you to rethink defense. The campaign was reworked in version 8 to be more linear, which some miss. It runs smoothly on low-end hardware, though late-game megabases can lag.
