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 laid-back tower defense game where you build a factory and automate defenses against monsters.

What players say

Players enjoy mixing factory automation with tower defense, though some find resource movement awkward compared to Satisfactory or DSP. A few call it an incomplete demo, and one reviewer found the tutorial and gameplay off-putting.
