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 lighthearted sandbox battle simulator where you build forts and watch physics-based chaos unfold with minimal pressure.

What players say

Players enjoy the chaos of large wooden soldier battles, but the game lacks quality-of-life features and has no updates since 2017. It is repetitive and can crash when too many units pile up, though some find it relaxing.
