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 manic, head-spinning cosmic blaster that blends frantic dodging and resource scavenging with a sense of never-ending mystery.

What players say

Players compare it favorably to the classic Defender, noting it blends that game with Missile Command and adds time manipulation mechanics. Opinions split sharply: some call it a rich, complex homage with a fantastic soundtrack and detailed tutorial, while others find the same tutorial painfully slow and the game sluggish and overpriced at $40.
