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 desperate, strategic tower defense where you control a warrior and recruit allies to hold a last stand against a relentless invasion.

What players say
Players are split: many find the core loop fun but criticize the janky UI, unresponsive controls, and unfinished feel. The developer is praised for fast bug fixes, though balancing, repetitiveness, and lack of controller support frustrate others.
