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 power fantasy of building your army and dominating Mordor through strategic combat and visceral, personal nemesis encounters.

What players say
Players adore the Nemesis System, calling it a unique feature that makes orcs memorable and rivalries personal. Many lament that Warner Bros. patented the system, preventing other games from using it. The endgame defense of fortresses gets called a tedious grind, and players note unskippable orc captain dialogues that drag on.
