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 tense, minimalist grand strategy game where you balance expansion, diplomacy, and resources under constant pressure to avoid collapse.

What players say

Players enjoy a lightweight world conquest sim that teaches geography, but some find the troop system frustrating and the map visuals messy. Reports of crashes every few minutes appear, and long-time players wonder if updates have stopped. Difficulty scales heavily with country choice.
