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 tense, strategic loop of ordering tribespeople to gather, hunt, and craft in real time, where each new territory raises the stakes for survival.

What players say

Players are split on this free tribal management game. Some describe it as addictive, comparing it to Beecarbonize, while others say the gameplay is shallow and requires constant micro-management of dragging cards with no real strategic choices. The UI is criticized for being wonky, with sound sliders that reset and dragging that sometimes doesn't work.
