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, slow-paced strategy game where you manage global resources and climate policies, feeling the weight of hard decisions.

What players say

Players praise the game's unique take on climate policy but say its systems are opaque and buggy, requiring guesswork or an unofficial patch to be fully playable. Reviews are split on whether the difficulty reflects real-world complexity or is just poor design.
