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 methodical, tabletop-inspired tactical wargame where you command disciplined armies across large fantasy battlefields.

What players say

Players praise the game as a classic that holds up decades later, with a brutal but fair challenge and excellent voice acting. However, many note it is a bare-bones port with no touch-ups, and some report crashes on modern systems.
