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 short, abstract incremental game where you quickly defeat enemies to chain upgrades and feel a growing sense of power.

What players say

Players say the early game was excessively grindy and upgrades felt weak, but a rebalance patch dramatically improved progression. It is a short, skill-based incremental with a large upgrade tree. Players split on whether the remaining grind is tolerable.
