    Tengo que ser honesto con este juego, entiendo que hay muchas personas a los que les encantan los gatos y se la pasan diciendo "michi que bonito michi". Pero si este juego no tuviera como tal esa skin del gato tierno, verían la verdadera esencia de Stray, un juego bastante mediocre que no dura más de 4 horas.

    Maravilloso, un apartado grafico espectacular con mucho mimo y cariño, la historia se deja llevar de manera fluida, lo jugue en Playstation gracias al plus y fue un acierto, lo comprare en fisico ya que es un juego que vale la pena tener para el futuro. A1 este juego me hizo querer a los gatos.

    This game is utterly amazing. The controls, the atmosphere, the music. I honestly didn't expect this game to hit me so hard emotionally...Cats really do make great protagonists for platformers!!! Also, it doesn't show their b-hole. (Thank God!) XD

    I won't put 10 just because i can't put this game in the same category as the last of us but this is an absolute masterpiece. I was interested from the moment i saw the first trailer and it did not disappoint. If you wanna pass some good 4-6 hours you should definitely play this game.

    Ótimo jogo. Ele conquista pela simplicidade na gameplay, na riqueza de detalhes dos cenários com a direção de arte muito bem feita e na história que é muito bonita e bem desenvolvida e tem uma grande, e ao mesmo tempo sútil, crítica social. Poderia facilmente ser um episódio de Love, Death & Robots.

    Great game, solid sound design, and art. I also really love when you turn a game and just play it as the developer intended. No difficulty settings etc. Set the brightness and go. I see people saying it's 4 hours, but it took me 6.5. No rushing, but not going back to get the collectibles etc. Headphones recommended. Congrats to the studio.

    I liked the game with its atmosphere of locations and accompanying music. A very unusual experience of playing for a cat :)

    Le jeu est beau, avec des ambiances variées. La lumière sur ps5 est fabuleuse, la 4K l'est tout autant. Un mood général très prenant et hypnotisant dans un monde futuriste. La critique morale est belles et bien amenée. Quelques bugs rencontrés, mais très léger, courts et dûs au fait que j'y ais joué day one. Mon seul regret est la durée du jeu. 5h a 8h pour le finir (en prenant le tempsLe jeu est beau, avec des ambiances variées. La lumière sur ps5 est fabuleuse, la 4K l'est tout autant.

    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

    This game is a masterpiece. It's gorgeous, the animations are amazingly real for everything the cats do, and it gives you all the cat activities you could want - snuggling/playing with other cats, running and jumping and climbing on everything, scratching trees and couches and carpets, napping, knocking things off ledges and tables, hitting buttons on radios and remotes, playing with toys,This game is a masterpiece.

    Honestly such an incredible game! I wouldn’t call it easy nor difficult, right in the middle, but can give you a but of a challenge in some bits. The graphics are amazing! Such a unique experience! Haven’t finished it yet, half way, but can already tell you guys that this is a real masterpiece!

    PS. Just finished the game, I’m in tears, the ending…

    DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!

    At first, Stray was cute. I wondered what was around the next corner. But then, when the first puzzle was infront of me, i did not know what to do. i dont like the feeling when i am clueless. One cryptic puzzle is no big deal i thought. It is the little things that furiated me. time after time. where to go. i dont know. A futuristic DARK world with strange monsters who wants to kill me.At first, Stray was cute. I wondered what was around the next corner.

    El juego para ser indie le han metido empeño y creo que estamos en una era que demuestran que los indies pueden dar batalla y este junto a kena tienen mejor calidad que muchos AAA que en los últimos 2 años han sido basura algo que se ha vuelto común en la industria y se siente bien ver un juego bien hecho.

    The game was intriguing, but the ending is a bit unfinished. But we are waiting for new games from these talented developers. B12 you are great

    I’m so glad and satisfied after playing this game for 5 hours. I’m enjoying every bit of it, so not rushing for now.
    Kudos to B12 studios and Sony for supporting this indie developer.

    I greatly enjoyed Stray's aesthetic and world building. The city and the robots felt realized and a connected to each other. The actual gameplay was very simple but managed to stay entertaining enough due to the games very short runtime of around 4 hours.

    If you are allergic to cats, hate mystery, exploration and a good atmosphere in video games, don’t play Stray. Otherwise, you’ve probably already beaten it. It’s a rare occasion to get a title such as this. And if it looks like something you might enjoy, that’s likely because you most surely would.

    Stray makes the most of its choice of protagonist early on, really allowing you to do all the things a typical cat would do, though it eventually loses sight of that in favour of spotlighting the short story. That’s no cause for hissing, though it does leave the overall experience feeling somewhat like two kittens from different litters forced together. The combination works better than it should, but we’re ultimately left wondering what could’ve resulted if either half of the game had been given enough space to stand alone. [Issue#18, p.70]

    It sounds ridiculous. And maybe it is. But the first ten minutes of Stray broke our heart. We’re a soft-boiled egg when it comes to animals, even when they're completely fictional. A cat who loses his friends and then gets hurt? Enough for an intense feeling of sadness and pity. It is not the challenge, but the experience that is key in this game. You really play Stray for the atmosphere. And that's exactly right.
