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 methodical turn-based battle where two players test their tactical wit in medieval fantasy skirmishes.

What players say

Players appreciate the atmosphere and art but find the font nearly unreadable and the tutorial overwhelming. Performance stutters on modest PCs, and the 3D pieces look too similar to distinguish at a glance. The win condition is crossing the board, not checkmate, which confuses newcomers, and the AI camera rotation during opponent turns is disorienting.
