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

"VOLFIED" is a line-drawing action puzzle game released by TAITO in 1989. Pilot the Monotros to drive out the aliens from your home world using the ship’s laser to take back the captured territory. Retake 80% of a stage to win, but be careful the enemies do not come into contact with your ship or incomplete lines while your barrier is off.
