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 laid-back tower defense game where you casually upgrade and reposition towers while doing other tasks.

What players say

Players say it's a short, free tower defense that can be completed in under an hour. The lack of map scrolling and tiny UI are common frustrations, while the inability to lose makes it feel more idle than challenging. Performance lags late game and content is thin, but as a free game it's hard to complain.
