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.
How it feels
a primitive, arcade-paced shooting game where tinny computer-processed voices punctuate the action, feeling like a technical curio from the dawn of gaming.

About
Released in 1980 as an arcade title, Stratovox is one of the earliest video games to feature voice synthesis technology. The system allows players to communicate with each other using real human voices recorded and processed within the machine's circuitry.
