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, story-driven RPG where you manage resources, build bases, and navigate tense political intrigue in a harsh frontier.

What players say

Players praise the writing and moral choices but split on combat: some find it excellent and tactical, others say it is repetitive and slime-heavy. The dialogue system is clunky, the ending disappoints some, and the sequel sold poorly. The Rokaj setting and culture are well realized.
