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 tactical auto-battler where you constantly grow and reposition your army against overwhelming dark fantasy hordes, demanding careful formation planning under pressure.

What players say

Players describe it as a stripped-down Heroes of Might and Magic auto-battler where you set up units for automatic fights, choosing which enemy each ability targets. Runs are fast and addictive, but the game feels shallow with little content and a poor interface.
