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

This is a fast-paced, fun real-time tactics game where you control a colorful squad from a moving vehicle, liberating islands with guerrilla warfare and fighting cartoonish octopus enemies.

What players say

Players say it is a short tactical RTS without base building, focused on squad missions and outpost liberation. Some praise the simple fun, while others find the combat lackluster and report game-breaking bugs. Reviews are split on whether the difficulty is challenging or frustrating.
