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, cerebral strategy title where you carefully manage economies and militaries to achieve global dominance.

What players say

Players call it a clear clone of the 1990s Imperialism series, which many love. But they also say the release is rough: missing volume controls, no tutorial, poor translation, clumsy map navigation, and only one map. A few note development may have stalled.
