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 compact incremental tower defense where you repeatedly start runs, upgrade, and eventually crush all enemies.

What players say

Players describe it as a short but addictive tower defense and incremental hybrid that respects their time. They appreciate the clear skill tree and free respec, though colorblind users find the upgrade tree hard to read. Opinions split on the token limit challenges: some call them clever, others tedious.
