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 are split on this 2007 grand strategy game. Some enjoy its simple turn-based gameplay while others find it boring and lacking a tutorial. A major issue is the game asking for a product key, making it unplayable for many. It also lacks modern display resolution support. Long-time players say the high price feels like a cash grab for abandonware.
