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 cute, puzzle-like tactics game where each short level feels like a small brain-teaser to solve within a few turns.

What players say

Players describe Slimesphere as a tight tactical puzzle where every action matters, with small maps and a strict three-turn limit. Many note the difficulty is high and that positioning, facing, and elevation are as important as unit type. A few players wish for a way to share custom levels.
