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

It's the 21st century (a couple of decades ahead of the present time), and the world is dark cyberpunk place where cyber gear may be as deadly as a real metal gear. The game features two main characters, both ready to handle any given situations, both with special skills and abilities, and what's most important, both girls. Each girl has different methods of dealing with things and different storylines, and you can select with whom to play the game through (each girl has its own disc to boot up). Ice takes her confidence in the firearms and is cool and loud, while Aska is a ninja who prefers stealth over exposure, and uses blunt weapons like swords and daggers.
