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 methodical mix of real-time strategy and card play where you deploy units and abilities from a deck in tense tactical skirmishes.

What players say

Players are split on Golem Gates. Some praise its unique mix of RTS and deckbuilding, with a decent campaign and challenging trials. Others call it abandoned, citing dead multiplayer, units that get stuck on nothing, and sound effects that lack impact.
