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, historically grounded real-time tactical wargame where you control unit movements and morale under pressure

What players say
Players praise it as the best of the classic Close Combat series, but the Steam release was plagued by crashes on launch. Updates have fixed the stability issues for many, though some still report problems. Players split on difficulty: some find it too easy, others enjoy the challenge.
