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 tense, tactical roguelike where you pilot steampunk mechs through a gritty alternate WWII Europe, delivering a decisive EMP strike against overwhelming Axis forces.

What players say

Players describe it as a lightweight tactics game with simple rock-paper-scissors combat and minimal unit depth. Many find the campaign short, seeing everything in about six hours, and note the progression through random buffs lacks impact. Reviews split on whether it feels like a polished arcade experience or an overpriced mobile game. VR support is praised by those who use it.
