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, turn-based space tactical game where you rebuild a fleet from ruin, pursuing a personal vendetta through deliberate, ship-to-ship combat.

What players say

Players compare Spacer: Legacies to Battletech and tabletop games like Star Fleet Battles, praising the tactical hex combat and directional shield mechanics but split on whether the game delivers on its potential. Many cite a buggy unskippable tutorial, sluggish ship movement even on fast mode, and a generic linear story with repetitive missions.
