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 find Anno 2205 simpler and more linear than Anno 1800, with a straightforward production chain that sells goods directly to NPCs instead of using cargo ships. Some call the game boring or hard to start, while others enjoy its futuristic setting and interconnected sectors, though players split on whether it offers long-term replay value.
