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 slow, methodical real-time simulation where you command carrier fleets in historical World War II battles, requiring careful planning and tense decision-making.

What players say

Players are split: some find the controls confusing and the game buggy and unfinished, while others praise the fun core gameplay and active developer support. Many agree it shows potential but needs more polish before it is easy to recommend.
