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
As a resistance leader in Nazi Berlin, you constantly weigh risky, meaningful decisions against the ever-present threat of discovery and loss.

What players say
Players praise the game's historical perspective and emotional impact, but are split on its gameplay, calling it a text-heavy, linear strategy sim where history cannot be changed, and some report bugs or limited replay value.
