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.

When the seeds of gold are watered by the northern spring, a miracle will spring forth in the doomed land. The game was localized in Namco Museum Vol. 5, under the translated title.
