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 methodical tower defense game where players must carefully build and command defenses against waves of enemies, balancing pressure and planning.

What players say

Players see a decent-looking tower defense that borrows heavily from Kingdom Rush, but they split on whether it is worth playing. Many complain about a boss plane that destroys any upgraded tower with no counter, calling it an unfair mechanic that ruins the game. Others point to unbalanced difficulty, broken achievements, and levels that become a grind. A few find it fun and visually polished.
