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

Another Century's Episode Portable is a portable version of the Another Century's Episode series. The game combines elements of its four predecessors, with the gameplay being more reminiscent to the PlayStation 2 games. There is no plot; the game operates more like a mission simulator. Elements brought back include the old functional boost. The game also contains squad multiplayer.
