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.

About

LEGO Bionicle is an action-adventure platformer in an isometric perspective. The player controls Takua, a villager on the island of Mata Nui through a series of linear levels that take place in the 6 different biomes across the island. This is the only canon handheld Bionicle game, and seems to serve as a prelude to the Mata Nui Online Game and Mata Nui Online Game II.
