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 detailed, methodical sandbox of military and economic management that feels like orchestrating a global chess game with real-time pressure.

What players say

Players praise the game's deep geopolitical simulation and freedom to play as any country, but they consistently report performance problems, dated visuals, and several bugs, especially with helicopter pathfinding and the tutorial crashing.
