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 light and cheerful time-management game where you rebuild settlements and gather resources at a relaxed pace.

What players say

Players enjoy the classic time management gameplay and the Egyptian theme, but they note the final level is anticlimactic and some miss Steam achievements and trading cards. The 50 levels offer a comfortable challenge on casual mode, though star requirements can be inconsistent.
