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 polished, strategic tower defense that feels methodical and rewarding as you build and adjust your defenses against waves of enemies.

What players say
Players call this a classic tower defense with a satisfying core-stealing mechanic and strategic tower placement. They praise the amount of content and included DLC, though some find the announcer grating and the graphics dated.
