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

You place towers along the Silk Road in a cartoonish historical setting, building defenses while following a light story.

What players say

Players call it a rough Kingdom Rush clone with serious balance problems: ranged enemies flood too early, barracks are useless, and artillery is overpriced. Some players lost their carriage system or progress on returning. There's armor stacking and silly air stages. At a 90% discount it might be worth it, but at full price many regret it.
