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 deliberate and tense historical naval simulation where players command fleet-scale battles with realistic ship models and ballistics.

What players say

Players say the game is a single-scenario naval battle where you mostly watch the ships fight themselves after a slow approach. Fans of the period like the models, but others find it shallow and indistinguishable from other titles by the same developer.
