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 laid-back sandbox where you shape a nation through economic and political decisions without the pressure of micromanagement.

What players say
Players praise the unique political and economic simulation, but many find the city building shallow and the endgame lacking once all laws and buildings are unlocked.
