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 this game, the film's hero, Gizmo, attempts to find the gremlins and capture them all. In the meantime, the sinister Stripe and his army of 30 different gremlins decide to invade the town of Kingston Falls and try to transform Gizmo into a gremlin. The game can be played as either character. Gremlins: Unleashed! features 10 levels based in locations featured in the film, including Billy's house, the school laboratory, the department store, and the movie theater.
