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

Managing hell's overpopulation through frantic tower defense and bullet-hell combat, with a darkly managerial tone.

What players say

Players praise the soundtrack and the addictive deckbuilding-tower-defense loop, but many say builds feel forced and the game gets repetitive. The max speed is too slow, the constant click interactions frustrate, and some achievements have controller issues.
