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.

What players say

Players enjoy the strategic top-down action with puzzle elements, comparing it to classic shooters. Reviews highlight the ability to switch between squad members and the developer's active presence on YouTube and Twitch. One reviewer strongly dislikes it, suggesting the original Cannon Fodder is better.
