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.

An ambitious open-world prehistoric action-adventure that never made it to release.

About

Intrepid Computer Entertainment and Lionhead Studio's action-adventure B.C. would have pitted players against a variety of pre-historic wildlife in an open world sandbox. The game was cancelled in late 2004 to focus work on other projects, with game director Peter Molyneux hoping it might one day be revived.
