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

Tom Clown is an unlicensed game for the Sega Mega Drive developed by AV artisan and published by Realtec in 1993. Tom Clown Circus is an interpretation of the game with the Atari 2600. The game is pretty hardcore. Music is poor. A "diversity" levels - a typical Arkanoid without bonuses. It was originally bundled on floppy with Realtec's copier and was eventually put out on an extremely small amount cartridges.
