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 methodical tower defense where you build and fine-tune a deck of cartridges to redirect and dismantle robot waves with escalating tactical choices.

What players say
Players praise the strategic depth of combining tower defense with deck construction, particularly the ability to build mazes. Boss difficulty spikes cause frustration, and some report the tutorial is broken and the game feels unfinished, though those who get past it find it highly addictive.
