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

You frantically combine and fire a massive variety of spells, weaving through alien hordes in a flash of pixels and numbers.

What players say

Players praise the spell crafting system but say the game feels slow and menu-heavy early on, with bullet sponges instead of interesting enemy mechanics. There is broad agreement that content is thin: few maps, wands, and characters. Some suspect AI art, while others find the loop addictive for an afternoon.
