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 methodical town-building experience where you carefully manage settlers, resources, and survival against famine and war in a medieval pixel world.

What players say
Players describe a game with a promising concept that was abandoned in a buggy, unfinished state. The core idea is praised but execution is crippled by crashes, broken mechanics like stuck miners and unrepairable buildings, and UI problems that make late game unplayable. Most agree development stalled after a rushed 1.0 release.
