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, turn-based simulation of 17th-century scientific discovery where you cautiously perform experiments and manage rivalries.

What players say
Players largely agree the game was abandoned in early access without promised updates, making it feel incomplete. The simulation of 17th century science has a unique atmosphere, but the gameplay becomes repetitive and mechanical after a few hours, with little variety in content.
