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 playful, cartoony card-battling roguelike where you build a silly doomsday device to take on goofy enemies with light strategy and humor.

What players say

Players split on difficulty: some find it surprisingly challenging, others breeze through on easy mode. Most agree the mechanics are simple to learn but the board-position card play adds unexpected depth. The 90s Cartoon Network art style and music are consistently praised. Long-time fans note it works well as both a quick coffee-break game and a deeper session game.
