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 methodical, contemplative simulation where you carefully manage resources and make strategic decisions in a subdued, atmospheric setting.

What players say

Players appreciate the mix of tower defense and incremental progression, especially the meta-currency system that unlocks special powers. But many complain about clunky controls, especially charge shots that fail to register, and repetitive levels that feel identical each run. A few suspect generative AI was used for art and writing.
