Stray has a lot of Chapters, and within those Chapters, the game tends to focus on a specific type of gameplay. For example, in The Slums, the game takes on more of a classic adventure style of play. In other areas, however, you will be expected to do some running since, well, you’re a tiny cat.
There is very little combat in Stray, and most encounters with enemies will require some degree of evasion. In the early-mid game, these tend to be running sequences. These are linear and not too long- just be prepared to hold that run button and avoid Zurks like they are the plague – heck, they basically are the plague. A tip is to remember that holding the “jump” button will have you jumping automatically – very handy.
