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

Field of Glory: Empires feels like steering a vast, living historical tapestry where careful planning and cultural legacy slowly unfold over centuries.

What players say

Players consistently praise the decadence and legacy mechanics for curbing map-painting, but many find the user interface opaque and the pace too slow. The integration with Field of Glory II for tactical battles is a highlight, though performance can drag and development appears to have stalled.
