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 deliberate, management-focused strategy game with a light adventure narrative layered over classic city-building and RTS mechanics.

What players say

Players praise the deep city-building simulation where each villager has a profession and needs food, sleep, and marriage, but the interface is cluttered and the lack of explanation can be overwhelming. Some find it gets tedious after a while, and a few report crashes.
