So, when you start the game, you start playing from the ruins that were naturally swallowed as a tutorial.
The beginning of ADV 'Stray' that becomes a cat looks like this-YouTube
This time, I'm playing the Steam version on my PC. You can press the B button on your Xbox controller to 'meow' at any time you like.
You can easily jump to another scaffold by pressing the A button, and if you hold it down, you will jump to the nearest scaffold at the timing when you can jump. There are scenes where you jump over high and narrow scaffolding one after another, but since you can not jump to places and directions where you can not fly, you will not fall except for the production in the story.
The Y button is a button for performing cat-like actions. You can take actions such as nailing on a tree trunk, rug, or sofa, or drinking water. There is no concept of HP in this game, and since it does not recover HP by drinking water, there are many completely useless actions in the game, but it helps to become a cat and enhance the immersive feeling. ..
But Stray isn't just about enjoying cat life. If you play the following movie, you can see puzzles that make full use of cat-likeness and encounter scenes with mysterious enemies that give you a glimpse of the SF horror side.

The glass underneath broke and opened a new route.
Also, as you progress through the story, a cat may be attacked by the mysterious creature 'Zurk'. Zurk is one size smaller than a cat, but it moves around quickly like an insect and rushes in large numbers, so some people may not like it.
If you jump to Zurk, you can shake it off with the B button, but it will slow down.
If you jump on it as it is, the screen will turn red and the game will be over. There is no Gore depiction of a cat bleeding, but it does scream and hurt. There is no difficulty selection, but even if the game is over, you can start over from just before and there is no penalty, so you can challenge repeatedly.
As you progress through the game, you will come across a drone 'B-12' that speaks words. This drone will get items and unlock doors on behalf of cats that can't grab things by hand.
When the range of actions expanded by encountering B-12, the main story of Stray finally started.
Taking advantage of its lightness, it runs around the neon-lit city in three dimensions, and pursues the mystery of the disappearance of humans from the city.
There is also a collecting element that collects traces of humans left in various places.
Robots live in this world instead of the lost humans. You can also interact with the robot through the translation of B-12.
In this article, I briefly summarized the basic operation method and action of Stray. You can read the video that enjoys the world view of Stray and the article that explains the points that are easy to get stuck from the following. However, the part where the game has advanced to some extent is also posted, so please be careful if you value the playing experience at first sight.
