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 multiplayer historical shooter where players coordinate with their team to win battles using muskets and bayonets in a tense, tactical war setting.

What players say

Players describe it as a free, chaotic musket shooter that scratches a similar itch to Holdfast or Dino D-Day. The community is tiny but friendly, though the game is largely dead and plagued by server lag and crashes.
