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

You command vast naval fleets from a grand strategic overview then zoom into real-time tactical control of individual ships and planes, with a deliberate, wartime feel of planning and execution.

What players say

Players are split on Victory At Sea Pacific. Many praise its grand scale and epic carrier battles that capture the Pacific Theatre's scope, but serious bugs and a perceived lack of developer support frustrate others. The learning curve is steep, enemy fleets respawn excessively, and some call it abandoned and unfinished.
