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

You command a squad of battle rigs in explosive 15-minute matches, racing against opponents and aliens to secure cores for victory.

What players say

Players say the game is abandoned by its developers and the multiplayer is dead, leaving no way to play as intended. A few remember its solid team-focused MOBA-RTS hybrid design and short matches, but the pay-to-win monetization and lack of population made it unplayable.
