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 playful, competitive strategy game where you tactically deploy whimsical fantasy races to conquer and overrun a too-small world.

What players say

Players enjoy the board game but warn about a broken friend system that prevents adding bots to hosted games. Some find the repeated clicking on map areas tedious after a few rounds.
