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 methodical and deeply strategic simulation of feudal Japan, where careful diplomacy and resource management lead to satisfying territorial expansion.

What players say

Players love the factions and the realistic feel, but the port is severely broken for many on Windows 10/11 with a black screen after the intro movie, and there is no windowed mode. Those who get it running praise the strategy depth and soundtrack, yet criticize the clunky real-time battles and simplistic diplomacy.
