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 deep, slow-burn historical simulation where you craft a personal legend through diplomacy and warfare.

What players say

Players split on this remake. Some say it is the best single-player ROTK despite being simpler than XIII, praising the action point system and character development. Others call it boring, repetitive, and criticise the AI as worse than the original, with poor duel/debate mechanics and a lack of depth.
