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 brisk, cerebral race to build a space empire through card drafting and tableau building, where every decision feels like a calculated gamble.

What players say
Players praise this as a fast and faithful digital version of the board game, especially for solo play against a notably competent machine-learning AI that provides a real challenge. Opinions are split on the interface, with some calling the symbology cryptic and hard to parse, while others find it works well once learned.
