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 slow, methodical turn-based tactical RPG that feels punishing and unforgiving as you lead a band through a gritty low-fantasy open world.

What players say
Players compare Dead Monarchy to Battle Brothers and Wartales, praising its tactical depth and character customization but noting it is less polished. Reviews split on the pacing: some love the complex perk system and head-popping combat, while others find the imperial mode's XP grind repetitive and the world barebones. A few criticize the lack of female characters.
