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
Playing this game feels like a slow-burn tactical combat exercise where every move has weight and the world is grimly hostile.

What players say
Players praise the Linux and Mac support, especially on weak hardware, and enjoy the hardcore one-shot-kill realism that carries an anti-war message. Some say it has not aged well, noting a short campaign and no playable Soviet side, while others find the jank part of the charm.
