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

KanColle Kai is the Playstation Vita version of the popular Japanese online browser game Kantai Collection, where the player is put in charge of a navy consisting of moe anthropomorphisms of World War 2 warships known as "fleet girls". It introduces various strategy elements such as hexagonal maps, in addition to a new resource transfer and escort system. Some maps within the game will allow two separate fleets to operate simultaneously, and the player is able to change the tempo of the game. Existing functions from the original web browser game will also be present, with major user interface changes.
