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, realistic military strategy game where you methodically capture assets and wear down enemy morale using modern hardware in tense desert and urban combat.

What players say

Players praise this obscure RTT as a hidden gem that laid the groundwork for Syrian Warfare and Terminator Dark Fate Defiance. They warn that the pathfinding ruins vehicle movement, ATGM infantry can kill themselves, and crashes make frequent manual saves essential. The story and voice acting are weak, but the mission design is tighter than in later entries and the physics are satisfying.
