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

You calmly design and assemble a modular castle block by block, then watch your defenses hold or fail against waves of enemies on varied terrain.

What players say

Players enjoy the early campaign but say one build, tall arrow towers around a walled keep, wins every level, making late game repetitive. Reviews also mention a poor tutorial and that difficulty does not scale with upgrades.
