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 sprawling, communal journey through a lovingly recreated fantasy world where exploration and story take center stage.

What players say
Players praise the deep Tolkien lore and the rich, reverent world, but the launcher is notoriously broken and the monetization draws heavy criticism for being predatory, with a subscription that does not include expansions and arbitrary point bundles. Server data loss has also angered long-time players. The community is friendly, though zones feel empty and the game shows its age.
