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 text-heavy strategic adventure where you manage a city, command battles, and shape your story through deep, branching choices in a steampunk world.

What players say

Players agree the game is very short, finishing in about two hours, with an abrupt ending and shallow companions. The city management is simple but restrictive, allowing only one action per week. Reviews split on whether the low price justifies the lack of depth, with several calling it a rushed experience.
