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 lighthearted, fast-paced tower defense where you constantly upgrade a growing tower with colorful magic and weapons against quirky enemies.

What players say

Players praise the fresh tower-building concept but are split on the difficulty, with some finding it too easy and others calling it well-balanced. The game is short, around 4 hours, and several reviews note performance lag in later waves.
