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.

About

A whole armada of technically advanced alien chickens attacks with their UFOs and beams everything away that does not find shelter fast enough. Let them come, you are prepared. Many traps and extras help you to repel the invaders before they abduct everything and everybody. A new war of the worlds unfolds, make no mistake about it: The world is too small for two kinds of crazy chickens. Only the most talented hunters are a match for the extraterrestrial invaders. Prevent the aliens from building a base on earth and let no one escape to call for reinforcements. This game offers fun graphics, many hidden puzzles and extras, chickens behind every corner and enough lead to punch holes into everything.
