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 military simulation where careful planning and precise execution drive the tension of each operation.

What players say

Players compare it to MechWarrior 2 and Mount and Blade, with fast, lethal mech battles wrapped in a light 4X conquest layer. The friendly AI frequently gets stuck on terrain and ignores enemies, and long load times undermine short missions. Updates through 2026 left the campaign feeling unbalanced and rough.
