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

Urgent communication: James Pond – Codename: RoboCod has got himself embroiled in some very 'fishy' business indeed, involving his arch-nemesis, the notorious super-villain…'Dr Maybe'! James Pond launches himself back into battle, to thwart the evil Dr Maybe and his dastardly plans for World domination. With help from his amazing new robotic suit, James Pond must traverse bizarre worlds, jumping, squashing, climbing, stretching and squishing bouncing bears, crazy cadillacs, whirling dervishes, chocolate mountains and not forgetting devious and wacky 'end-of level' bosses!
