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.

What players say

Players describe it as an abandoned early access autobattler with a chess theme, praising the talent system but criticizing the lack of players, unbalanced gameplay, poor tutorial, and UI that is hard to read even on high resolutions.
