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 methodical and tense medieval base-building experience where you must gather resources and fortify defenses against relentless enemy waves, with storms adding an extra layer of challenge.

What players say

Players describe a fast-paced mix of base building and tower defense with simple resource management, but some criticize it for feeling like a mobile port with no mid-wave saving and too high a price.
