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

Dizzy is an egg living in a world of magic and fantasy. The basic concept of the game is to move around the world, finding various items and collectibles, and to use them in the right locations. Dizzy has no special skills or abilities, save for his remarkable feats of somersaulting, and must solve all problems he faces with the clever use of one or more items.
