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 creative, experimental hybrid where traditional chess logic gives way to sudden action duels, powered by buffs and quirky fighter abilities.

What players say
Players praise the idea of blending Chinese chess with action fighting, but widely criticize the clunky controls, frequent bugs, and poor balance. The campaign is limited to puzzles, and multiplayer requires direct IP connections. The horse piece is notably weak, and skill usage feels vague.
