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 methodical, tense 4X experience where every decision feels like a calculated move in a grim, unending war for survival.

What players say
Players largely agree the core game is a solid 4X that cuts diplomacy to focus on tactical combat and faction flavor. However, nearly every review warns the base game feels like a demo and the 20+ DLCs make the full experience prohibitively expensive, leaving many unable to recommend it despite enjoying it.
