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 slow, deliberate, and cerebral wargame where careful management of armies, fleets, and event cards over years of simulated conflict feels like commanding a sprawling historical campaign.

What players say

Players praise the rare historical setting of South American independence wars. Opinion splits on the execution: some enjoy the board-game-style cards and dice as novel, while others find the AI robotic, the interface unintuitive, and the battle simulation a step back from the developer's earlier Wars Across the World. Bugs and a higher price than its predecessor are common complaints.
