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 deliberate, moody turn-based strategy game set in a dark fantasy world, where careful tactical planning unfolds across gothic, isometric maps.

What players say

Players love the distinct race mechanics and unit evolution trees, and praise how leaders persist across the campaign. Many say the game is surprisingly hard, especially compared to childhood memories, and that the AI cheats on higher difficulties.
