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 relentless, punishing tower defense that demands meticulous strategy and patience to survive overwhelming enemy waves.

What players say
Players report a minimal tower defense stripped of options and polish. There is no settings menu, towers lack visual upgrades, and the camera is fixed. Many call it low-effort and unfinished, with several pointing out a 2023 price increase from 0.90 to 4.99. A few see a demanding, back-to-basics challenge beneath the bugs.
