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-paced, methodical grand strategy where careful management of industry and military over years of turn-based play determines the outcome.

What players say
Players praise the simple yet deep grand strategy, especially the meaningful civilian population and challenging economy. Many say minor nations like Netherlands or Argentina are surprisingly fun. Some note the AI is weak and territory expansion is limited, while others find the resource management too painful.
