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 design and manage a cozy yet strategic hydroponic factory with a quirky robot crew, balancing resource growth and base expansion at your own pace.

What players say

Players consistently say Roboplant feels unfinished and abandoned after 2023, with bugs like robots getting stuck and achievements becoming impossible to earn. Reviews split on whether it is fun for a short while or simply not worth the price, and those who enjoy it note its cute style and relaxing pace but also find the content runs out fast.
