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 fast-paced, cartoonish blend of tower defense and real-time strategy where you capture windmills to fund your army and fight in quick, tactical battles.

What players say

Players praise the charming art and music, but are split on longevity. The campaign is very short, around an hour, and becomes repetitive with only three unit types. The Dark World difficulty spike is brutal, and multiplayer is described as dead. Some find the game a simple puzzle-like experience.
