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

Asuka, Ikaruga, Katsuragi, Yagyuu and Hibari are five novice ninjas with different powers, but all of them have one aim, to rid the world of evil. Take the girls in a horizontal scrolling action adventure, slash at the obstacles that block their way and combo enemies in the air. When gamers execute a move beautifully or satisfy some other challenging conditions, the girls will reward them with special cut scenes full of fan-service moments. The fast pace fights will appeal to action fans while the bishojo lovers can enjoy the cut scenes. But don't skip the story, as the scenarios are written by Kitashima Yukinori of 428 Fuusa sareta shibuya fame.
