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 straightforward, no-frills tower defense game where you place heroes and towers, manage elemental counters, and watch waves of enemies approach.

What players say

Players call it a standard and boring tower defense with serious optimization problems, dropping to 20 FPS even on modest hardware. The UI has a critical bug where clicking hero details leaves no way to return, forcing a restart. It is free, has achievements, and supports Chinese, but players say the core experience is not worth the time.
