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

In 1920, a pact was made between humans and pumpkins. People were supposed to take care of the pumpkins throughout the year. Pumpkins were to protect people from evil once a year. In one day, the pumpkins must stop the monsters of the whole world from passing into tomorrow. If they fail to do so, the world will be overrun by evil for 364 days. This day was called Halloween.
