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 and deliberate tactical wargame that feels like commanding armies through a detailed historical conflict.

What players say
Players praise its unique focus on East Asian conflicts, calling it a turn-based Shogun: Total War without the campaign map. Some find the UI impenetrable and the pacing too slow, while others value the historical depth and deep supply mechanics. There is disagreement on unit stat balance and AI behavior, with some calling it a worthy niche game and others bouncing off after an hour.
