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 strategic tower defense game where you design winding paths through a dark fantasy world, blending deckbuilding with base building and a cartoony, spooky aesthetic.

What players say

Players praise the mazing mechanic where tower placement creates enemy paths, calling it a fresh take on tower defense with a deck-building twist. They compare it favorably to classic Warcraft 3 mods. Some note the music is limited and text can be too small, while the early access state means content is still being added.
