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.

What players say

Players describe it as a lightweight tactical autobattler where you deploy a squad and watch the fight, with many noting it is a reskin of the developer's previous game. Opinion splits on its value: some enjoy the short missions and ragdoll physics, while others say it feels like a mobile game port with broken achievements, poor UI, and very little content.
