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, strategic survival game where every decision matters as you defend your base and push into increasingly dangerous territory.

What players say

Players say Hunters of the Dead is an unbalanced lane-defense game where RNG in tile selection determines success or failure, making it feel more luck-based than strategic. It is short, grindy, and only recommended at deep discounts or in bundles, with some calling it a mediocre substitute for Plants vs. Zombies.
