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 fly through vast, lonely sectors of space, learning alien economies and navigating threats with a methodical, strategic pace.

What players say
Players call it a classic but warn that the gameplay is slow and tedious, with lots of waiting and little action. It is not about space battles, it is an economy-driven docking and trading sim that some say requires pen and paper to track.
