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 top-down tactical space game where you command ships and manage loot against difficult procedural enemies.

What players say

Players are split on Pirate Patrol. Many praise its tactical space combat and potential for long 'one more turn' sessions, but a larger share call it unfinished, citing no save system, frequent crashes, a disjointed art style, clunky controls, and a steep learning curve with minimal tutorial.
