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 retro grand strategy game where you manage planets, produce fleets, and command mech armies in turn-based tactical battles.

What players say

Players praise the strategic depth and improvements over the first game, including unique commanders and a fleshed-out alien faction, but criticize the removal of battle animations, buggy controls, and a steep difficulty curve that can feel unfair.
