Stray is a game that doesn’t have strong system requirements. And the more you get to know the Robots, the more the game starts adding its darker elements. The game has a mellow start where you don’t know what to expect but then it takes a sad but beautiful turn when you meet the other robots. The whole theme of a cat working together with robots to fight an unknown species hunting them works really well for the game. But what I did not expect is how well the story will justify it. I did see some screenshots so it was easy to assume the game is in some cyberpunk universe. I’ll be honest when I started playing, I went in blank and for the love of cats. Lastly, one thing without which this review can’t be complete is appreciating this game’s theme. The other parts like the one where you get the super detergent or simple things like using an empty can to stop a ventilation fan felt well designed.Īlso, the story parts where you had to run around from the Zurks before getting the Defluxor added to the horror. So it felt really nice, making a mess as a cat. In it, you had to jump on books, because when you drop the entire pile of books fell.
Speaking of cats and jumping I definitely loved the library safe puzzle. But when you have a cat this cute you definitely want to make it jump around on random things. Don’t get me wrong I get the level and world design, and also the fact that this is not a cat simulator. You can only jump when you are near platforms. If I had to complain about something I would say it is the lack of freedom to jump. And that is where this game’s mechanics come in, this platformer is quite beautifully designed. No matter how well written the story is a game can’t solely rely on it or its characters.
