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 thoughtful and layered board game-like experience where each turn demands careful resource management and strategic planning.

What players say
Players describe Axes and Acres as a digital board game in the Catan style, not a town builder: you complete objectives in a fixed number of turns. They praise its quick rounds and escalating challenge, but warn that the UI lacks an undo for critical actions, there is no sandbox mode, and the tutorial is buggy enough that some cannot finish it.
