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 deliberate blend of turn-based planning and real-time execution set against an alternate Civil War naval backdrop.

What players say
This is a simulation-heavy game for hardcore naval history fans only, with no tutorial and a manual you must read. Players praise the AI and the ability to end battles at any time, but note the lack of ship construction, no multiplayer, and a very slow, meditative pace.
