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-paced, thoughtful city planner game where you methodically build and optimize transit networks across beautifully rendered historical cities.

What players say

Players praise its focused transport management and say it has more depth than Cities Skylines, but warn the budget is tight and metro lines are hard to afford.
