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 deliberate, tactical turn-based space fleet combat game where you carefully maneuver ships and issue commands across many missions, with a focus on strategic planning and incremental progression.

What players say

Players say the game is very cheap but also very slow, with turn-based battles that feel tedious and lack tactical depth. Combat requires ordering ships one by one, movement is short-ranged, and only one weapon type can be fired per turn.
