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 compact, fast-paced real-time strategy game where you quickly build up forces and focus on precise unit positioning in short, micro-intensive battles.

What players say

Players say Micro Wars delivers a fast-paced RTS where positioning matters and deckbuilding adds replayability. The campaign is short as it is in early access, but the developer responds quickly to bugs and balance. Some compare it to C&C Rivals.
