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 fast-paced card-based auto-battler where you build a deck of minions and spells, then watch them clash in real-time tower-defense style.

What players say

Players enjoy the real-time deckbuilding and faction synergies, calling it a fun tug-of-war auto battler. PVP is dead, the leaderboard shows only 18 players and matchmaking takes minutes, so most stick to the single-player campaign.
