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.

A methodical and strategic simulation where you carefully plan and execute tactics.

What players say

Players praise the core concept of managing a WWII airbase but are split on the survival elements, with some calling berry foraging and tree chopping out of place. Morale can be punishing in recent updates, and the game suffers from performance drops and repetitive resource loops, though many see strong early access potential.
