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 free slice of medieval real-time strategy that feels historical and tactical, with a grand soundtrack and gory multiplayer skirmishes.

What players say

Players describe it as a mix of Company of Heroes and Total War set in the Middle Ages, but opinions split on the depth, some praise the tactical challenge while others find the rock-paper-scissors combat repetitive and boring after a few matches. The free Viking campaign offers a taste, yet the limited content and small player base hold it back.
