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

Feels like a classic board game brought to digital life, where you carefully maneuver units and earn points through conquest and control across centuries of British history.

What players say

Players praise the faithful adaptation of the classic board game, but most cannot recommend it due to persistent bugs that break single and multiplayer campaigns, including units vanishing and soft crashes. The AI is widely criticized as too weak and predictable, while the UI frustrates even those who tolerate the flaws.
