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

You command a battle tank with careful positioning and swift tactical movement, where every shot and angle matters.

What players say

Players say the game has a unique concept but suffers from a dead playerbase and tank controls that feel awkward for a MOBA. The UI and launcher are clunky, and bots masquerade as real players. Those who stick with it enjoy the strategic gameplay and minion-blasting action, though balancing is a concern.
