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, story-driven tactical RPG set in a dusty steampunk Wild West, where you manage a crew and upgrade your airship between turn-based skirmishes.

What players say

Players praise the steampunk western setting and airship combat, but many find the UI painfully slow and the game overly text-heavy. Opinions split on the story: some enjoy it while others find it cliché and full of plot holes. Travel is slow and a memory leak makes the inventory stutter.
