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 tactical space strategy where you command a small, elite squadron in measured, maneuver-based battles against alien forces, balancing RPG progression with careful planning.

What players say

Players call this the weakest entry in the trilogy, citing an unfinished feel, an abrupt story ending, and repeated crashes. Many also report game-breaking bugs that block progression.
