In Stray, we look at the world through the eyes of a cat that fell into an underground city and will have to get out of there. This city is run by human-like machines. We will be discovering the nearby sites by jumping or falling into various sites as well as playing with a ball, but also solving various types of puzzles. All these adventures are possible due to the agility of the cat. A drone will accompany us and help to communicate with other machines.

Stray’s underground city has only robots. They are necessary, as without them we we become lost. Some of them lead a normal life, but other robots try to get out of there.

As a cat, we will jump on pipes, roofs, enter apartments as well as access spaces that are impossible for humans to reach.

In Stray, we need to find our way completely on our own through exploration. We need to solve relatively easy puzzles and battle machines. We have to avoid dangerous monsters that can defeat us. Most of the time is spent on exploration and deduction. While the majority of the game involves puzzles, not everything is obvious and we need to find out many things on our own. These puzzles make the core of this game. At times, the cat needs to simply avoid danger.

Stray performs better on PS5 rather than PS4.
