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 atmospheric city-building simulation that feels like carefully laying out Roman streets and managing resources at a relaxed, thoughtful pace.

What players say

Players praise the Roman atmosphere and historical accuracy, but overwhelmingly report the game is abandoned, no updates since October 2025, no communication from the developer. The game is plagued by bugs that corrupt saves, delete cities, or break campaign missions. Some find it promising but unfinished, while others call it too rough and basic even to play.
