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 slow-burn strategy game that places you in the seat of Cold War power, where every diplomatic and military decision feels weighted by paranoia and the looming threat of escalation.

What players say
Players are split on this Cold War strategy game. Some enjoy the budget balancing and space race mechanics, but many find that random events determine the outcome regardless of skill, making winning feel impossible. Criticism also targets the lack of tutorials, poor UI, and a price that feels too high for the quality.
