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 and detailed management simulation where you feel the pressure and reward of building a club's success over time.

What players say

Players say it is a lighter, more accessible alternative to Football Manager, with a good tutorial and a dry sense of humor. But many warn about a long-standing bug that deletes players after promotion, and reviewers note the matches are just text with no player animations. Players also report risk of save corruption from Steam Cloud sync.
