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

Prince of Persia: Redemption was a proposed title in the Prince of Persia series by Ubisoft Montreal in 2010-2011, whose pitch was never picked up. It is rumored to have been a continuation to the Prince of Persia 2008 universe, which ends in a cliffhanger. It reached mainstream news when a YouTube video showing the game's concept surfaced from the depths of the internet in 2020, 8 years after it was uploaded.
