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 clean, minimalist tower defense game that feels chill and meditative, with simple controls and relaxing music as you expand bases against a mischievous digital ghost.

What players say

Players describe a unique blend of tower defense and puzzle where you build on multiple hex layers and route ammo with conveyor belts. The minimalist neon look and chill soundtrack are widely praised, but the need to manually aim and the confusing layering system split opinion.
