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 meticulous, slow-paced wargame where every move matters in cold, tactical clashes.

What players say

Players call Combat Mission: Final Blitzkrieg a deeply realistic but hardcore wargame that demands real military tactics. They consistently note its outdated graphics and clunky interface, and split on whether the high price is justified, especially after some missions were removed. Performance problems on large battles and crashing also draw complaints.
