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 gather resources, build and upgrade a base, and lead villagers through strategic turn-based combat in dynamic dungeons.

What players say

Players enjoy the mix of automation, tower defense and roguelite elements, but many find the game grindy with a sharp difficulty spike after the first boss. Longtime players wish updates were faster. A common complaint is the game requiring an online connection even in single-player.
