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 methodical real-time strategy where you assemble robots from components, focusing on tactical customization and multiplayer skirmishes.

What players say

Players love building and tinkering with robot combinations, spending time in the robo builder and finding satisfaction when goofy, creative setups win. The booster system is addictive and the mars aesthetic is praised, though one review found the gameplay clunky and unintuitive.
