Question 1

True or false: The robots in Stray speak a fictional language that players must decipher.

Accepted Answer

False. Robots speak a garbled version of human languages, but it's not a full fictional tongue. Subtitles clarify their dialogue for players.

Question 2

True or false: In Stray, the cat's name is never officially given in the game.

Accepted Answer

True. The protagonist is simply called 'the cat' in dialogue and menus. The name 'Stray' refers to the game, not the feline.

Question 3

True or false: Stray was developed by a team of only 5 people.

Accepted Answer

False. Actually, BlueTwelve Studio had around 30 developers. The small-team rumor stems from its indie vibe, but it was a medium-sized project.

Question 4

True or false: The city in Stray is based on a real-world Kowloon Walled City.

Accepted Answer

True. BlueTwelve cited the dense, cyberpunk aesthetic of Kowloon Walled City as a major visual inspiration for the game's claustrophobic alleys.

Question 5

True or false: Stray includes a secret room that can only be accessed by meowing at a specific wall.

Accepted Answer

True. In the Slums, meowing near a certain poster triggers a hidden area. This Easter egg rewards players who experiment with the meow button.

Question 6

True or false: A real cat named Murtaugh was the motion capture model for Stray's animations.

Accepted Answer

True. The developers studied their own cats, especially Murtaugh (a rescue), to capture realistic feline movements and behaviors for the game.

Question 7

True or false: Stray was originally conceived as a game about a dog but changed to a cat late in development.

Accepted Answer

False. The game was always about a cat. The team felt a cat's agility and curiosity better suited the exploration and puzzle mechanics.

Question 8

True or false: Stray features a hidden ending where the cat escapes the city alone.

Accepted Answer

False. There is only one canonical ending: the cat reunites with its family outside. No secret solo escape exists in the game's code.
