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 laid-back tower defense game where you manage a camp, grow food, and build defenses at a gentle pace while chatting with NPCs.

What players say

Players say the farming-and-tower-defense mix has potential but is held back by a rough start, no tutorial, a map that feels too large and empty, and clunky controls like no fast-forward button. Reviews split on whether the developer will polish it into something good.
