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 blend of tower defense and survival management where every resource and worker placement feels carefully weighed.

What players say

Players like the customization options but say the game lacks a clear goal beyond surviving waves. The constant wall repairs annoy some players, and a few compare it unfavorably to bigger tower defense titles like Defense Grid.
