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 slow-paced, colorful medieval city-builder where you carefully assign and watch villagers grow skilled while managing resources and fending off mild threats.

What players say

Players describe it as a shallow RimWorld-inspired city builder that lacks original ideas and meaningful content. Reviews consistently report glitches during raids, confusing job prioritization, and no updates for years, making it feel like abandoned development. A few find it charming in a simple way, but most say even the low price is too high for what is there.
