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.

a straightforward multiplayer strategy game where you quickly set up troops and react to enemy moves in brief waves.

What players say

Players love the tactical depth of its three factions and unit counters, but the multiplayer is nearly dead with long queue times. Long-time players say development stalled after the developer moved on to other projects.
