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 feel like a calculating commander methodically expanding control over an island under imperial orders, weighing each strategic move with a sense of high-stakes responsibility.

What players say
Players consistently report severe performance problems, with frame rate drops during combat and long load times ignoring a loading message. Many compare it unfavorably to Warlord: Britannia, saying its conquest loop is repetitive and lacks tactical depth, though some defend it as a refreshing first-person real-time strategy with rewarding army and camp customization.
