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 contemplative strategy game where you calmly manage resources and build defenses against a slow, flowing alien substance.

What players say
Players call this the peak of the series, praising its bird's-eye perspective and terraforming mechanics. The campaign starts relaxed but later missions divide players: some find them too time-sensitive and frustrating, while others say pausing removes any time pressure. Community-made maps are a big draw for long-term play.
