The right viewing spot is well worth the climb. Useful for escaping the game’s insectile hordes of Zurks, but also just very Cat. You’ll soon find yourself gravitating towards the walls in each environment, assessing their scalability at each moment.
Approach a surface within jumping height and you can leap up at the tap of button prompt, smoothly gliding between platforms, ledges, and banisters. You can prowl and dash through environments, yes, but for cats, verticality is everything. What really sets Stray apart is the movement. Play on PlayStation and you'll be treated to those adorable mewls and purrs directly from your controller. There’s even a dedicated meow button – a concept that is somehow even better in execution than it seems on paper. It’s in how our ginger protagonist stretches themself after a nap, how they bat at anything small and questionable, that awkward get-this-off-me waddle performed the first time they’re given a harness. Jump on it and see what happens: the cat approach.įor those who’ve lived with cats, the love is evident from the get go. Stray has cats down to a scratched-up, laser-pointer-chasing T. But seldom do any actually grasp the essence of the creature at your command. There are loads of games that feature cats, plenty more that’ll let you control animals or even gargantuan, inhuman monsters. Because seriously, who knew knocking things over could be this much fun? Go on, you know you want to. Having spent several hours batting paint cans off ledges in Stray, however, we’ve had to reassess just how maliciously they’re minded. But we also kind of love them for being such dicks. Cats aren’t assholes, they just like button prompts.ĭon’t get us wrong - our feline friends are brilliant and absolutely worthy of our adoration.
