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, tense turn-based tactical RPG where every shot can shatter cover and alter the battlefield, demanding careful planning and punishing mistakes.

What players say

Players praise the full environment destruction and tactical depth, calling it a classic for turn-based fans and comparing it to Jagged Alliance. But some say level design is punishing, the game crashes often, and the Steam version has broken AI and an unbeatable final boss.
