    What a little gem of a game this is. Small French developers Blue Twelve have done a fantastic job here, the cat is amazingly lifelike, the robots are so well portrayed and emotive, and the dystopian world they inhabit is so immersive and well realised. This is not a difficult game but it is an absolute joy to play, it is beautiful and not just to look at.

    A story-driven adventure. A beautifully designed cyberpunk world. And a cat who can push stuff off shelves!

    Stray was the cutest and one of top 5 best games I've ever played.

The portrayal of the cat was just exceptional, it's just so authentic; the movement of the cat was so realistic and all the non-story necessary actions like scratching on carpets, sofas, and curtains, running on keyboards, knocking things off shelves and high areas, and rubbing up against the robots made the portrayal and playing as the cat so believable. The gameplay is just so much fun, I especially love the platforming and puzzle solving elements of the gameplay and I loved how little direction you're given so you have to explore and find clues a lot to figure out what your next step is. The world design is outstanding, I love how detailed the cities are and how each time you circle the cities you find new things to look at. The visuals are so beautiful animated especially the cat and the robots. The writing is excellent especially the story, which was fun, cute, beautiful, powerful, and touching, and the characterization of the robots which made them very personable NPCs. The soundtrack is superb and love the unique sound and heavy use of synth. The sound design was excellent. An A+ video game. Expand

    What a game! New ideas, new gameplay mechanics and oh the graphics are superb! How did they manage to achieve this on a base PS4? Did I mention the superb audio? Graphics 10/10, Audio 10/10, Gameplay 9/10, Loading 9/10.

    Just completed the game, its fantastic! I'm glad this got popular. Was afraid it was going to be another indie gem hidden underneath all the triple A bloat Who woulda thought a simplistic game would actually look so cool?

    There are so many good ideas here! The plot is very interesting, the dialogues are well written and the two main characters are amazing.
    The art direction does an amazing job to create this world. The places are lived, they tell a story.
    Minor mistakes like some clumsy controls cant affect my thoughts that this game is one of the best indies ver made!

    A graphic adventure of the new age.

    I've played a lot of games that purport to be Cyberpunk, and only a handful of them feel like a retro futuristic experience. Stray is one of them. A chill game, just enjoy it, solve some puzzles on the roof, run and don't let rot catch you. Small steps in a future to which we humans no longer belong. You are constantly invaded by melancholy

    Despite being a French work, we can see in his art the Mono no Aware (物の哀れ) at its best

    Гра просто супер. Дуже підходить для того щоб просто релаксувати. Одна з найкращих в своїй категорії. Зустрів тільки один баг, але не значний і вилікувався поверненням на контрольну точку. Мені здалася дуже атмосферною і не відпускала ні на секунду за весь час проходження.Гра просто супер. Дуже підходить для того щоб просто релаксувати. Одна з найкращих в своїй категорії.

Not only because there are cats included (which gives bonus points in my scale) but the gameplay is a breath of fresh air from all the GTA’s, Red dead’s out there. The game in my opinion was made to enjoy it, but not like any other game no, I feel like you really get the most of this game taking your time with the game, enjoying it at your own pace. It’s just a masterpiece of a game 10000/10 for me Expand

    Such a beautiful game. The cat, the graphics, the world, the story, the messages that the writers try to share hit home without being preachy or annoying.

    Для меня пока лучшая игра года, после работы придти и расслабиться в ней самое то!
    Игра не сложная, но думать немного придётся, думаю с ней справиться ребёнок лет 10+ (если конечно учиться хорошо :)) )
    Графика меня порадовала и оптимизация тоже, котик очень плавный и милый. Ну и самое главное, тут можно мяукать на кнопку О и точить коготки. 10/10

    I not gonna lie, the first time thia game got a trailer I was hyped up, and when I got to play it, it wasn't a disappointment at all, the game is short but I feel as like, if the game was longer it wouldn't be as great. Plus, it is a cat with a backpack and there is a button to meow.

    STRAY is an experience that, although it may run short of time, its originality and care will allow it to remain in our memories for a long time.
