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 brisk, ever-changing strategy board game in space where every diplomatic snap and military skirmish reshapes the galaxy around you

What players say
Players compare it to a fast, lightweight version of Twilight Imperium with sessions under an hour. Many cite persistent bugs, especially with carriers being stranded or lacking troop icons, and some report late-game AI turns cause multi-minute waits. Reviews split on value: some praise the $20 price, others say even the sale price is too much for how simple and buggy it is.
