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.

What players say

Players are torn on this remake of a 2006 RTS. Many love the nostalgia and frequent updates adding content, but a vocal minority finds it unplayable due to pathfinding that breaks mid-game, crashes, memory leaks, and painfully slow gold income. Longtime fans also note that the campaign was oversimplified compared to the original.
