The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A lord saves a puppy from a giant snake and adopts it. The snake is a demon that wants to destroy the castle, and the dog's spirit divides into eight warriors who must come together to defeat her.
