published

A new puzzle game called ‘Stray’ has arrived. If you are new to the game then you will definitely need the Stray guide that will help you to progress. 

As the player, you will control a stray cat who has fallen into a world populated by robots and sets out to return home. There is also a focus on atmosphere, exploration, and art. A drone companion named B12 can assist by translating the language of the robots and storing items found throughout the world as they progress through the narrative. 

The player must complete puzzles to progress the narrative, which includes moving obstacles and traversing platforms. Zurks are one of the game’s enemies and will swarm the player with severe attacks. To know more about the game, read our Stray guide which has very important tips and tricks for you. This is a new game so you need a guide to understand the game and progress in it.

Stray Guide: Jump

It’s only the jumping mechanics that are tedious. You can’t just pick up the kitten and start jumping. First, locate a ledge or drop where the kitty can jump, then, as soon as requested, hit Space.

Stray Guide: Surroundings

Just like how a cat walks in the real world by taking the help of the surroundings, the game offers the same thing. In Stray, you can use the surroundings to go forward. Use dumpsters and other things to assist you to jump over fences as you move through the dark city. You can also climb inside the windows and jump over the pond on the barrels. There are lots of things, you will just have to think from the perspective of a cat. 

Stray Guide: Signs

You cannot get lost here because it is not an open world. However, you must follow the directions provided by the signs. The signs will help you to know where you need to go next. But it is a puzzle game, so sometimes you will have to use your brain too.

You cannot jump Everywhere

Since jumping is important in the game as you will have to go to different places, you should know that you cannot just simply jump wherever you want to. You won’t be able to jump on air conditioners with spikes, so be aware of this if you notice any.

Power supplies

In the game, you will have to find the power supplies. On the large monitor, climb onto the keyboard and wait. The unknown will write messages on the screen. You will soon be able to see the next room. Once you are there, jump on the lever to your right and enter it. Move the monitor stand. And you will see a power supply at the bottom.

Remove it, then insert it into one of the four slots on the left. Jump onto the monitor that the block was pulled out from under and look directly for another one. Put in any available slot. Getting behind the last block requires jumping on the tall wooden stool on the opposite end of the room and then onto the tall cabinet on the opposite end of the room.

How to get the B-12

For this, first, you will have to get the power supplies. In the above tips, we have mentioned how to get power supplies. When you reach the tall cabinet, you will have to push the box and then you will find the drone. Run back to the computer where the power supplies are installed after grabbing the drone. Over the middle blocks, position the drone on the work surface. This is how you will get the B-12.

Programmer Elliot’s house

In this, you will be tasked to meet him. You need to find Programmer Elliot’s house. You can find it on the first level, near the red door (away from the keepers). Obtain electrical wires and sew a poncho from a grandmother’s collection of designer items so that Elliot won’t refuse your help.

Robes puzzle

As you progress further in the game, you will have to do some minor things during the Robes phase. Many players get stuck here. To communicate with all of the drones, you must first reach Zbaltazar at the monitors and show him the picture of Clementine. Once you have shown him the picture of Clementine, your drones will start communicating with each other. When you are ready, climb up to the top and leave this place through the pipe. One of them needs three colors. You can continue from here. 

Take your time when you are stuck

Sometimes, it might be possible that you won’t find a way. Do not get frustrated and take some time when you are in a situation like this. All you need to do is sit back and rest for a while. Once your mind is fresh again, you can start searching for the solution again. 

Think like a cat

Once you start to think from the perspective of a cat, you will feel everything simple. This is not a game where the main character is a human or something similar to it. You are a cat and a cat can do lots of things that is different from humans. Therefore, you should think like a cat at some situations and play accordingly. Cats can go inside the pipe and go through very small places. So, keep all this in mind.
