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 colorful, cooperative tower defense action game where you build defenses and switch between heroes to fight fantasy hordes with friends.

What players say

Long-time fans say the sequel lost the charm of the original and now feels abandoned by the developers, with outdated UI, paywalled basic features like the shard vault, and a shop full of dark patterns. Newer players warn of poor performance and a first mission that can't be quit mid-game, but those who stick with it praise the satisfying grind and unique tower defense action-RPG blend.
