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 breezy, nostalgic take on battleship-style play with each unit given a quirky superpower twist, offering light strategy in short, approachable sessions.

What players say

Players call it a fresh take on Battleship with a viking pirate theme and skill-based abilities. It hooks people for hours and suits both casual and competitive play. Some complain matchmaking pairs them against much higher level opponents who know their ship positions, so wins feel rare.
