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
You feel like a hardened commander juggling limited resources and uneasy alliances in a lawless, tense frontier where every decision carries weight.

What players say
Players compare MENACE to XCOM and Jagged Alliance with a sci-fi twist, praising its polished early access state and varied equipment. However, many complain the AI cheats by knowing player actions, and timed missions punish strategic play. Players are split on whether the gameplay feels like rewarding tactics or a rushed puzzle, and some call the lack of mid-mission saves a dealbreaker.
