@2:03 4 hour run time IF you play like a human. Take your time, Explore!, Take a cat Nap, Scratch a couch. I'm just shy of 6 hours in and only 55% complete ;)
I'm two hours in just loving the view's and lore.. this is so beautiful and chill.. taking a break rn on purpose because the cat is sleeping while this robot is playing "Tomorrow" 🎶❤🐱
This review is just right. The highlight for me was how dense and beautiful the world is, but man, did they get the way a cat moves, and feels just right. The way the cat lands from a jump in particular, was just like my beloved orange Tabby, who looks very much like the cat in Stray.
It is really funny, 4 weeks ago I was at my daughter and her husband's home and Greg (her husband) was playing this game and I was so surprised at how funny it was. So then I bought it on the PlayStation! And I am now so so happy that I have this game, even though 98% of my games are Lego and Big Fish games. But I am so so so loving this very funny game, especially since I have 6 of my own cats!
@@twofacejoker2848 Interesting, because i've been playing for 6 hours and i clearly still have at least 2 hours left to finish it....not to mention Inside is 4 hours long and it's one of the greatest games ever made by far.
Not a bad game but it is only an 8 if you have your expectations in check going in. There aren't really any gameplay elements at all unless you count the "puzzles" and very few "run from the bugs" sections. It's a walking simulator. You can't even count platforming since you essentially warp from ledge to ledge and can't fall off. Not a bad game at all, but I can understand if people were expecting something more along the lines of a platformer.
There is actual gameplay all over. Puzzles are gameplay and stealth sections are gameplay and exploration is gameplay. It's not a walking simulator as you clearly don't know what that means. It's worth more than an 8.
They didn't, this is a great game and one of the best games of the year. It's immersive and a love letter to not just cats but cat lovers. Stop writing ignorant comments.

I watched someone play this and I fell asleep. That's not necessarily a dig at the game. I personally found it boring and the "be a cat" gimmick... Well, I'm not a cat person.
I tried the game yesterday. It is a fun short game with nice graphics and very nice snappy controls. Not every game has to be the same boring shooter for the last 20 years. Personally I hope on a Portal 3 release or something like that in the future.
@@KneppaH. Boring shooter? So are you just gonna ignore all of the boring action adventure games that's literally out there at least I'm having fun playing shooting games
I will say again, but to be honest I hope this game gets enough success in order to see a sequel or, even better, a franchise.

You could play like a tree and the game might last 1000 years

Score is an 8, a full point above the normal IGN 7.
I love how the cat looks like my favorite buddy Oliver who passed away of cancer few years ago
Lol
I always imagining a game from animal's perspective...
it will be nice to play as a Bear or Tiger

Good ganeplay
Good graphic
Good story
I enjoy this game so much that I have played again 3 times to find all achievements that I missed.
I wish this game was on the switch. Looks like a perfect mobile time killer kinda game.
I’m dreading the day coming soon where all the Game Informer staff all become strays :(
Eh, they’re wankers
Alot gamers & reviewers been praising Stray a ton and it definitely looks very interesting. Definitely gonna pick up this game for my PS5.
it's 4hours long dude.. pointless getting it

What da cat doin
vibing
I would love stray 2 with a dog & coop!!!
that's a neat idea
@@gameinformer I can imagine the puzzles as we speak 🤔 😌🧩
How do you get onto the game
No microtransactions no NFT and no season pass? Say what?
Indie 🤘
Thanks for the review
Thanks for watching!

I really enjoyed the game primordia, it’s an adventure game with good puzzles, no cats but the world is similar.
@@FuzzyDlop It certainly is a walking simulator, maybe you don't know what it means.
Im excited but now sad its only 4 hours 😢
so dope (cats approved.)
No humans in this game world?
Purrfect
Hopefully this lays the groundwork for a Warrior Cats video game!
omg ever since i started reading the series the hope for a game has been high in me! :') wouldn't it be neat
Can they add it to App Store..😭😭
Just found it in app store today :)
I hate hour counts. Play as long and as slowly as you like smh
Gameplay looks repetitive, but the rest seems dope. Simple and effective concept
fwiw, the game is short and sweet enough that the mechanics don’t overstay their welcome. That’s been my experience anyway.
The greatest games of all time are seemingly repetitive like Marble Madness, Limbo and Astro's Playroom.
The game has variery actually, it's not repetitve at all.
Press X to magnetically jump to stuff. Great...
Doesn't matter as it is enjoyable as hell.
Video games fell off so bad man

You know it's a sad time when a game can be made where you play as a cat and the reviews are positive .
You're ignorant, we get it. This is one of the best games of the year.
cry about it lol
@@lunargraph Not crying just saying , i mean u play as a cat that just walk around.

there's a trophy for sleeping as the cat for an irl hour

The internet will give anything a high score if it has a cat In it unfortunately.

@@prohibitedbeatz. I don't think you should be asking that question
It's worth a playthrough just once. But I dont get the high scores either
how has this got an 8 😬
Cats bro waaaoooooooo 😯
@@Swickful exactly.. so I ask again, how did this get an 8
cuz its GOOD
Cause the cat deserves an 8!
