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 deeply strategic and methodical experience where you carefully guide a civilization through millennia of history, making critical decisions that shape alternate timelines.

What players say

Players recommend Millennia only to those who have exhausted Civilization, praising its alternative ages and deeper economy, but many say Paradox abandoned it without support. Reviews are split: some find it brutally difficult even on the easiest setting, while others call it addictive once the mechanics click, and a few warn the demo outshines the full game.
