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 brisk, colorful strategy game where you build a base and command heroes in fast, class-synergy-driven battles.

What players say

Players consistently compare it to Thronefall, calling it a variation with faction upgrades and hero choices. Some say it outpaces the inspiration, while a vocal minority finds it inferior. The campaign is short at 4 hours, with only 6 maps across story, wild, and endless modes. One unit, the frog, is repeatedly called overpowered.
