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 deliberate, turn-based wargame that immerses you in the intricate logistics and strategic choices of a sprawling historical civil conflict.

What players say

Players praise the deep simulation of the Russian Civil War, but warn of a brutal learning curve, frequent crashes, and terrible performance even on strong PCs. The tiny UI fonts and clunky tutorial frustrate many, while those who persist find a rewarding, heavily historical experience best enjoyed in play-by-email matches.
