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

In the continent of Orsia, there exist three nations following a long war: Folga, a northern nation with a focus on magical research, Raudel, an empire that has recently acquired new territory along the Folga/Raudel border, and Verius, a theocracy that generally maintains neutrality in continental conflicts. Verius also serves as the central hub of the dragon faith, the only widespread religion in Orsia. The story follows You, a figure in the dragon faith tasked with delivering the word of the dragons to an annual international summit meant to prevent further war from breaking out.
