The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Kim Milyoner Olmak İster? (English translation: Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?) is a Turkish game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The program was broadcast from August 2, 2011 and it is shown on ATV. The main goal of the game is to win ₺5,000,000 (₺1,000,000 until 2023) by answering 13 (12 until 2023) multiple choice questions correctly. There are four lifelines: Ask the Audience, Phone a Friend, 50/50 and Double Dip. If contestant answers the 1st or 2nd question incorrectly, the contestant walks away with absolutely nothing. During the game, the contestant can walk away with the money they earned in the game, thus ending the game. This version does not have Fastest Finger First round and the host will invite each contestants to the studio, and also uses a modified version of the clock format first used in the UK version. The first two questions each have a 15-second time-limit and contestants then have a 45-second time-limit for each of the next five questions. After answering 7th question correctly, the clock is removed and there is no time limit to answer the last six (five until 2023) questions. If the contestant fails to give a final answer when the time expires, it will be treated as if a wrong answer was given by the contestant. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
