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 low-stakes, puzzle-like strategy game where you experiment with tower combinations and maze design each run.

What players say

Players say it is a strong roguelike tower defense that combines tower types through choices each run. It is hard on higher difficulties but rewarding, though content runs thin after a handful of games and some request a sandbox mode.
