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 resource management game where you click and idle through a colorful medieval world

What players say

Players consistently say the game is an unoptimized, grindy clicker that fails as an idle game since there is no auto-repeat or automatic healing. Many call it a cheap asset flip of a previous game, and the claimed language support is mostly absent.
