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 casual, methodical tower defense game where you steadily build up defenses against goblins, with a focus on incremental upgrades and rewarding progression.

What players say

Players enjoy the blend of tower defense and incremental mechanics, but note the game is short and has serious balancing issues. Many say some towers feel useless and resource progression bottlenecks hard in the late game, funneling players into a single strategy.
