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 laid-back arcade game where you click to bounce spells off walls, aiming to hit enemies while casually collecting shields for protection.

About

Battow - Mages And Monsters is a bouncing bullet game, the player clicks somewhere on the screen for the Mage to throw a spell in that direction. The spell bounces off the walls of the scene, and the player will need to use this to their advantage to hit the rival. Every time the player collects a chest or shield, he is protected for one round, that is, will defend himself if he is hit by the monster's spell. It's a relaxing atmosphere game, simple and easy to play. There are 5 Mages, 20 monsters and 100 levels.
