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 defensive strategy game where you methodically deploy elite troops and siege engines to hold back waves of enemies while managing limited resources.

What players say

Players describe it as a basic tower defense game with a Roman theme that gets surprisingly difficult in later levels. Graphics and gameplay feel dated, like a mobile game from years ago, and there are no upgrade systems.
