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 slow, thoughtful game where you manage resources, navigate diplomacy, and expand influence through careful planning and real-time-with-pause decisions.

What players say

Players describe Great Houses of Calderia as a resource management game focused on family relationships, but the tutorial is too weak and difficulty spikes abruptly even on easy mode. The studio disbanded, leaving bugs in the endgame and no new updates, though some praise the unique concept.
