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, chess-like tactical board game where careful squad positioning and veteran development shape the feel of medieval conflict.

What players say

Players describe a strategy game that feels half-finished and abandoned. It crashes often, the tutorial explains nothing, and picking fights offers almost no control. The small set of scenarios forces you to win in one sitting and the AI often cheats. Some players enjoy the simple board-game loops, but most call it a subpar mobile port.
