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 deliberately crafted tactical strategy experience shaped by classic inspirations, emphasizing planning and mercenary management over spectacle.

What players say

Players split on the time limit: many feel an unseen two to three year cap ends runs before their mercenary company matures, while a few appreciate the shorter scope. Others complain progression locks behind mission order, enemies scale harshly with your level, and forced faction choice undermines the mercenary fantasy.
