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
You feel like a malevolent, patient puppeteer slowly weaving destruction through careful, covert manipulation in a dark fantasy world.

What players say
Players praise the concept of being a dark god corrupting a world, but nearly all agree the UI is terrible and the mechanics are poorly explained. The tutorials are especially weak, leaving many lost even after many hours. Some players compare it to a finished version of the vaporware That Which Sleeps. Long-time players say the developer stopped working on the game after a mid DLC.
