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 slow-burn tactical space adventure where you probe the galaxy in methodical turn-based combat, balanced by offbeat humor and the quiet tension of the unknown.

What players say

Players praise Flotilla's distinctive style and turn-based 3D space combat, but consistently complain the campaign is frustratingly short with a harsh time limit and no save system, making the game feel shallow and over before it begins.
