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 man teams up with a gunslinger to rob a heavily armored stagecoach owned by his wealthy enemy. The two partners must outwit guards and navigate double-crosses to pull off the heist.
