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 punishing puzzle of turret placement and resource management where each wave demands precise strategy and trial-and-error optimization.

What players say

Players like the slick art and targeting options, but many say the game crashes constantly and has been abandoned by the developer since 2019. Those who play it find the challenge uneven, with easy mode feeling trivial after a certain setup.
