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

You navigate dense menus and data to manage a country or opposition faction, with a slow, methodical pace focused on political and economic simulation.

What players say

Players describe a deeply ambitious but bug-ridden geopolitical simulator. Technical issues dominate: random crashes, no auto-save, and failure to run on newer hardware. Many feel development stalled after updates stopped, leaving long-standing bugs unfixed. The few who enjoy it call it a guilty pleasure with creative what-if scenarios.
