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, detail-rich management simulation that feels like running a college football program from the front office.

What players say

Players praise the depth of the college football dynasty experience, particularly recruiting, playcalling, and stat tracking. But many report frequent crashes that can delete saves, and the AI logic for rankings and simulations is widely considered broken. The game is a text sim, so those expecting visual play will be disappointed.
