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

Managing every aspect of a nation through political, economic, and military levers in a slow, deliberate real-time simulation.

What players say

Players describe a buggy, sandbox-driven political simulator where absurd events like nuclear war with Pakistan or losing elections after breaking the economy are part of the fun. Opinions split between those enjoying the chaos and those dismissing it as shallow.
