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, historically grounded tactical experience where careful positioning and decision-making shape the outcome of ancient battles.

What players say

Players praise the deterministic combat with no randomness, and the historical setting with two distinct campaigns. However, many criticize restrictive mission objectives and limited freedom in unit composition, while some report bugs that crash the game.
