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 hands-on, competitive strategy game where you build and manage a medieval kingdom while engaging in persistent territorial warfare against other players.

What players say

Players say the game is heavily pay-to-win, with top gear locked behind real-money packs and little chance to earn it through play. Performance problems like crashes are also reported, and long-time players feel development has turned into a cash grab.
