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.

a methodical, large-scale tactical RTS where careful positioning and resource management shape deliberate, historically grounded battles

What players say

Players praise the realism and deliberate pace but warn that the controls are clunky and the fog of war gives enemies unfair visibility, making the game brutally hard unless played on easy.
