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 chaotic, colorful mix of tower defense and roguelite action where you frantically strategize and upgrade to defend your base from waves of enemy tanks.

What players say

Players describe it as a minimalist tower/soldier defense game with terribly unbalanced gameplay. Most agree it is visually poor and unsatisfying at a strategic level.
