Stray Is A Cyberpunk Game Where You Play As A Cat. What More Do You Need

Normally when you think of a game where you play a domesticated animal, it’s far from realistic. They go either the stylized fantastical route of Okami or the silly route of Catlateral Damage. Rarely do you see a game that takes the plight of a pet seriously, but Stray, a game by French developers BlueTwelve Studio, seems up for the task.

In Stray you play as a cat who has lost their family. Lost in a strange cyberpunk city, the cat “must untangle an ancient mystery” in order to escape. It’s a third person adventure game where you play as a cat, what’s not to love? Sneak around as the world’s stealthiest animal. Strike from the shadows at your enemies, so long as those enemies are the size of a lemon. Tactically place hairball traps in order to lay ambushes. 

Ok I made those all up. I don’t actually know what the gameplay will be like. But it looks cool! Stray seems to be a game that takes itself at least kind of seriously. Certainly there will be some ridiculous elements, but overall, it looks like an interesting adventure and problem solving game.
