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 strategic, turn-based slugfest where methodical planning leads to brutal, slow-paced carnage.

What players say

Players say this expansion is essentially a reskin of the base Armageddon game, with the main draw being commanding the Ork faction. Reviews split on enjoyment: some find it fun for the theme and mission design, while others call it boring and complain about timed missions and a reliance on artillery turtling.
