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.

What players say

Players describe a simple but deep card game that blends tower defense and puzzle elements, with satisfying combos when fruit-based skills align. There is no deckbuilding, and resource management can be tense. Reviews note the game was polished post-release, and long-time players praise its balance and replayability.
