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

You frantically juggle power, ammo, and crew while pausing time to coordinate salvos against a living enemy fortress.

What players say

Players say this artillery-based strategy game is unique and very replayable, with satisfying gun sounds and explosions. Some note the keyboard controls feel like a piano simulator.
