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 methodical top-down shooter set in WWI trenches where managing unit economies and commanding vehicles slows the pace to a deliberate, tactical feel.

What players say

Players say the game is unpolished and buggy, with repetitive missions that ask you to capture enemy positions every time. The survival mode lacks rankings, and many feel the content is too thin for the price, though some find it a passable time-killer on sale.
