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 strategic tower defense game where you methodically build and upgrade defenses around your base to repel alien attacks from all directions.

What players say

Players are split: some find the tower defense engaging and the sci-fi art style unique, while others say the UI/UX is weak, the game explains little, and it is punishing. Several reviews note that the developer stopped updating the game in 2024, which players lament.
