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 quick, strategic carnage with a comedic, irreverent tone and pixelated charm.

What players say

Players describe it as a puzzle-like RTS that rewards efficient number crunching, though the controls feel clunky and unresponsive. The humor divides opinion, some find it funny, others grating. Multiplayer is dead, and the later campaigns feel unfinished, with two chapters ending abruptly mid-map.
