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 slow, methodical card-stacking strategy game where you carefully gather and combine resources to build and fight, with a subtle tension from hidden dangers.

What players say

Players say it is a short, enjoyable card-based resource-management game that can be beaten in one to three hours, but many feel it lacks content and replay value. A recurring bug prevents the essential wires blueprint from appearing after the first run, and opinions are split on whether it is worth its price tag.
