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 bright and relaxing farming sim punctuated by nightly base defense, blending calm daytime activities with tense nighttime combat.

What players say

Players praise the cozy farming loop and the twist of zombies at night, but the early-access release is buggy with glitches like mechs getting stuck and save files disappearing. Players split on polish: some find it charming and worth the low price, others say content feels thin and progression slows down.
