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 tense, historically grounded real-time strategy game where you command forces through the chaos of the Indonesian revolution.

What players say

Players appreciate the historical authenticity but struggle with a poor interface and unclear tutorials that leave them lost. The real-time combat, compared to Risk, grows repetitive, and players split on whether the quality-of-life issues outweigh the engaging historical setting.
