    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is fun at first, the puzzles are okay. I have a big problem once you reach the halfway point. The puzzles start making no sense. I've have to look up help for several of them. It also becomes virtually impossible to make him happy. I went from having the highest trust for the entire first half to having the lowest within a matter of two chapters. If you want gameplay that actually makes sense, this isn't the game for you… Expand

    In the end, STAY is a game that's premise is more interesting than the game itself. If Quinn was more focused on escape than on philosophizing and the game ditched the annoying and unnecessary puzzles, it would be a better experience. If you're expecting a game that plays like an escape room experience, you'll be disappointed in it.

    STAY is completely different to anything out there at the moment, in a good way, and so it’s definitely worth checking out. Just remember that there are people that can help with those darn puzzles.

    It’s just a shame that my enthusiasm and interest was eventually fully deflated by obtuse puzzles that offer no guidance and ultimately feel superfluous to the game. Get rid of them altogether and you’ve got a gripping interactive story that’s dying to be told. But with the puzzles as they are, STAY is reduced to feeling more like a badly-designed old-school adventure game. I’m gutted.
