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 methodical and strategic WWII wargame where you command armies in deliberate turn-based combat.

What players say

Players compare this to classic Panzer General and other hex-based wargames, praising the huge maps and variety of units. But many say it feels unfinished, with missing features like a save system, poor performance, and a lack of polish, though the developer continues to update it.
