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 cute and strategic tower defense game where you summon tiny heroes to protect a journeying character, offering a lighthearted and engaging tactical experience.

What players say

Players praise the cute art style but consistently criticize the controls as an unpolished mobile port, with slow game speed and bugs that can halt progress. Opinions are split on difficulty: some find it relaxing on normal, others say it is unexpectedly tough and requires grinding.
