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 a legion from a first-person perspective, balancing base-building and open-world combat in a deliberately paced, atmospheric historical strategy experience.

What players say

Players like the Roman setting and base-building concept, but nearly everyone points to poor performance and clunky controls, especially camp building and army management. Some find the tutorial unclear, while others say the game becomes fun once you learn it. There is a split on whether soloing as the legate is more effective than using troops.
