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

Story: Bowser has tricked Mario into getting inside of a very strange glass box, called The Unworld. It is a very strange world in there... Mario, inside, asks you to help get him out of there using the controller connected to the box. It is up to you to lead Mario out of the Unworld and back to the real world in time to stop Bowser! Expect some humorous comments and a some-what storyline within this. To get to Bowser in the regular, just getting one normal exit after another path, will take you 33 exits. However, if you are a player who likes looking for secret exits, finding new Overworld areas and paths, then you will have a whole 93 exits to find. I only used Lunar Magic and the instant Death blocks in this hack, so I would call it a vanilla hack (I guess?) This hack has, in my opinion and that of others', a very nice difficulty curve, where it is pretty easy in the beginning and slowly gets much much harder. Many levels have hidden bonuses and secret surprises... So, what are you waiting for? Download this and have fun!
