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 fast-paced, turn-based tactical game where positioning and unit management create a deceptively deep strategic challenge.

What players say

Players enjoy the turn-based squad combat, especially in co-op, and praise the line-of-sight mechanic, but some find the gameplay boring and criticize unrealistic tank durability.
