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 quick and accessible retro strategy game where you build bases, gather resources, and crush opponents with colorful voxel armies.

What players say
Players call it a simplified Command & Conquer clone, great for introducing someone to RTS games but too basic for veterans. The campaign is short and the story is minimal. Players are split on whether it's fun enough or too bland.
