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

Runes Of Virtue 2 is the sequel to Runes Of Virtue for the Game Boy. Released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System as well as the Game Boy, Runes Of Virtue 2 maintains the action-RPG gameplay as the original. In this game, the Black Knight kidnaps Lord Tholden, simply out of boredom. Lord British sends you, the Avatar, out to recover Tholden and return peace to Brittania. As in the first Runes Of Virtue game you have the choice of selecting one of four characters. And again, there are three modes of difficulty.
