Chase scenes are pretty straightforward as the only possibility of death occurs when you hit a dead end and don’t react fast enough to make the correction. It’s something to get used to and serves as the only sense of difficulty, as most of the game is relatively easy. This results in awkward situations during intense chase scenes, as most of the time I found myself waiting half a second to get the prompt to appear in order to make a jump, resulting in a not-so-smooth transition from running to jumping. You're not free to jump around anywhere you want, as traversal requires reaching where you want to climb, then pressing the jump button once the prompt appears. The game’s controls are easy to grasp, but leaping is limited as all of the platforming is dictated by the presence of on-screen jump button prompts. With the help of a trusty robot called B-12, as well as other friendly robots you’ll meet along the way, this cat gets into all sorts of situations that gradually reveal the secrets of the city and those that live within it. Then it becomes a journey of finding a way back to the surface. The game starts with our cat protagonist traveling with the rest of his feline companions in the wild until a wrong attempt at a jump leads to him/her falling down into an underground city run by AI robots. It’s a short but well-thought out game that many will likely pick up simply because of the novelty of getting to play as a cat, but will fall in love with the world and characters BlueTwelve studios has brought to life. It’s a video game with simple gameplay but unique ideas that keep you eager to explore, with situations and mechanics exquisitely designed around the fact that the game’s protagonist is a regular cat. Stray is an adventure game where you play as a stray cat trapped in a cybercity inhabited by robots.
