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 wargame where you meticulously plan simultaneous moves and reorganize historical armies, feeling like a commander rewriting history on a hex grid.

What players say

Players praise the deep historical order of battle detail and the simultaneous-turn WEGO system, but warn it is not for wargame newcomers. The AI can be tough and the UI is unpolished. Players are split on the amount of content: some call it lacking, others appreciate the random scenarios. Many highlight the developers' active engagement and steady updates.
