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 lighthearted, cartoonish but challenging zombie-command game where you manage resources and tactics to overrun human cities.

What players say

Players enjoy the concept of controlling a zombie horde, but opinions are split on execution. The campaign is short at around 7 hours, and many report game-breaking bugs late in the game when too many units are on screen. Some praise the fun premise and humor, while others find the AI, UI, and lack of voice acting disappointing.
