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

A picross fangame based on A Link to the Past, available for Windows and in the Universal Updater for the 3DS homebrew. You start at Link's house, go to Hyrule Field where a fork leads you to the main dungeon (since the other ways are blocked by a boulder and a grass respectively), fight an enemy in the dungeon that gives you a sword to cut the grass, and so on. It has exploration, bosses, itens, hearts and a bucketload of picross puzzles.
