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 tactical tower defense where you manage upgrades and defend against alien waves in a colorful, retro-inspired RTS style.

What players say

Players like the novel AI and ability to micro-manage tower targeting, but note that early missions are easy and later ones require grinding. Some find it overpriced and lacking features like a speed option.
