    vale la pena cada céntimo que cuesta. Divertido, muy jugable, visualmente precioso y duración adecuada además de rejugable (teniendo en cuenta que es un indie y cuesta unos 25€....que más se puede pedir?)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Лучшая игра из тех, что выходили в последние годы, в которые я играл. А играл я в них не много, к сожалению. Но не об этом. В Stray мы, играя за кота, попавшего в город роботов, должны вернуться "наверх", в обычный мир, в котором, судя по всему, совсем не осталось людей, попутно узнавая этот город, когда-то населенный людьми, и знакомясь с роботами, которые после них остались. Кот начинает путь в одиночку, встречается с местными маленькими монстрами и убегает от них, в городе никого нет. Но затем он встречает искусственный интеллект B-12, который остается с ним до самого финала. Он переводит для кота все разговоры роботов и надписи, а также каким-то образом оцифровывает все находимые предметы, которые помещаются в специальный "рюкзак" на коте. Непосредственно после встречи мы попадаем в первую открытую часть города, в которой находим нужного робота, помогаем ему и еще нескольким, и, по желанию открыв все углы, двигаемся дальше. Не буду подробно пересказывать сюжет, чтобы оставить место для впечатлений. Словом, преодолев еще несколько опасных участков с маленькими монстрами и пройдя еще один полуоткрытый сегмент, мы добираемся до главной части города, находим нужного робота из местного сопротивления, попадаем с ней в тюрьму, выбираемся и на метро доезжаем до станции, где расположен выход на поверхность. Здесь B-12, который по ходу пути вспомнил, что был человеком, жертвует собой, чтобы открыть верхние створки ворот, блокирующих выход и накрывающих город куполом, и это выглядит трогательно. Кот возвращается в свой мир. Мне крайне понравилась это простая, но интересная история. Игра хорошо оптимизирована и позволяет насладиться прекрасно проработанными локациями в стиле киберпанк. Геймплей незамысловат, но для новой игры, в которой ты бродишь за кота, пытаясь найти путь домой и выжить, он подходит. Роботы интересно копируют поведение людей. Сегменты с "убеганием" от монстриков и с их уничтожением тоже сделаны неплохо. Ну, и небольшая история и предыстория местного мира не дают заскучать, учитывая, опять же, что это киберпанк. Игра достойна прохождения и, возможно, перепрохождения. 10 наколок на рюкзак кота из 10.… Expand

    One of the better and more unique platformer-puzzle games out there with an interesting world building, emotional storyline, satisfying gameplay, simple but fun puzzle and chase/stealth levels, and to top that off it has good graphics, music and sound effects.

    If not for the bittersweet slightly open-ended conclusion, I would've given this a perfect 10.

    This game is quite short (4-8 hours), but it's very good. I hope they release DLC for it. I will same that quite a few puzzles aren't exactly user friendly. I had to look a few things up, but overall it's very well designed. I cried at the ending, but I won't say more and risk spoiling anything. I'm happy with it.

    Super cute. 100% recommended if you love animals (specially cats) and if you like those little but beautiful stories.
    I think It have some minor optimization problems but nothing too problematic. The puzzles are enjoyable but not too difficult so every body can enjoy the game.

    Beautiful, dark, and simple, this game which can be beat within a day is no less a marvel as you control (for the first time?) an ordinary cat with all the unique abilities/distractions that come with it, making it fun to travel across and through buildings, interact with items & citizens, and find your way out of this grimy, detailed, but charming robot city.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра хороша, умники которые жалуются на то что это просто "симулятор ходьбы" идите играйте в другие игры. Эта игра просто создана как показать какую-то историю. Да , лично мне не хватало тоже свободных передвижений и прочего, но я смирился с этим , ибо понимал что это не triple-A проект, и стоит она не дорого по сравнению с остальными играми. За свои деньги, игра шикарная. Любителям кошек понравиться 10/10. История не настолько длинная конечно, но помним тот факт что и игра сама по себе не дорогая, и не позиционировала как какой-то большой проект. Красивейшая графика, кот ощущается как будто живой, все эти мелкие детали когда кот ходит по клавиатуре, или же запрыгивает на пианино сделано очень круто. Во многих играх такие мелкие детали упускают, но тут это добавили и за это уже игра достойна хорошей оценки. Игра очень приятная, плавная, всегда держит в интересе что будет дальше, интересная история с интересной концовкой. Лично я не ожидал поворота сюжета как в конце и и мне стало приятно, что сюжет игры не читается с первых миссий. Для тех кому жалко отдавать за эту игру 30$ идите играйте в FIFA ,которая стоит больших денег , а на деле является обычной донатной мусоркой.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Of course I expected a cool cat game where you can meow and throw things of the table. What I did not expect is how much fun I'm going to have doing this and how pretty it's going to be. I have enjoyed the story very much, didn't experience any bugs or crashes that would impair my experience. Of course there were 2-3 hitches, but tbh - didn't bother me at all, I can endure 2sec of trouble from time to time.
    What I also did not expect is the emotional damage I got from the ending... The feels! I love games that interact with our thoughts and emotions, and are about something more than just clicking on time. So the ending really got to me. He lost a friend! T_T What I'd appreciate would be if we saw him reuniting with his cat friends from Outside after he walks out. That would be a cherry on top, a balm for my soul. So yeah, I lacked this. I was playing to reunite him with his cat crew (that he lost in the Prologue) and I didn't see this happening so a bit disappointing...    … Expand

    The faithfully rendered, authentically impoverished setting goes a bit against the more magical technologies that accompany the cat's adventures. Suddenly, the game is left with nothing more than the atmosphere of each area, which fortunately in Stray's case still means a hell of a lot. [Issue#321]

    Stray is an awesome looking game, with a neon-cyberpunk world that feels like it is alive. The run-time is short enough that the gameplay loop of solving puzzles via finding random items scattered throughout the world is well complemented from sequences that require running from area to area without getting caught by local mutated predators. While Stray is pretty to look at and is fun while it lasts the limitations of movement and rather simplistic puzzles hold this back from being greater than it could have been.

    Leisurely promenades and simple puzzles are interspersed with action moments where you have to flee from local aggressive fauna. There’s also some stealth involved. These segments aren’t stellar, but they do shake things up nicely. [Issue#260, p.58]
