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 frantic, minimalistic arena RTS where you must rapidly adapt and outmaneuver opponents by balancing attack and defense on a hex grid.

What players say

Players say it is a surprisingly deep strategy game despite having only three building types and no upgrades. The AI is solid, but the economy caps out early, leaving little to do in the late game. Multiplayer matches are quick and fun with friends, though some find the difficulty punishing even on easy settings.
