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

The war continues between the green and tan armies, with air, sea and land vehicles increasing the range of attacks. New additions to your army include the ability to control both army men, land vehicles, ships, and aircraft (for example Helicopters, bombers, battleships, and tanks). The Army Men themselves have a larger arsenal to choose from, including the howitzer and mortars plus the usual machine guns, flamethrowers, and grenades. As a PlayStation exclusive, a 2-player capture the flag game has been included. The single player campaigns all included multiple objectives, such as capturing an enemy base while destroying others or defending an area from intruders.
