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 tactical real-time strategy game set in a historical conflict, offering measured and deliberate command over military forces.

What players say

Players praise the battles as some of the best musket-era RTS combat, rivaling Total War titles, but the campaign is widely seen as too short and repetitive with only three map types. The roguelite structure adds some depth, though difficulty spikes and unit balance frustrate many.
