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 dense, methodical wargame where every hex and unit demands careful, turn-by-turn planning across sprawling historical conflicts.

What players say

Players praise the huge range of historical scenarios and the editor, but many report the interface is clunky and the game suffers from performance bugs and UI glitches. The feel is dated, and some recommend sticking with TOAW III.
