A game in which you are a cat in a walled city of robots, released in July 2022 on PlayStation and PC and a phenomenon less for its play than for its viewers: the internet spent its launch week posting videos of real cats watching the screen. The record notes that a dedicated button to miaow did most of the work, and that a charity sold copies in exchange for shelter donations.
The record notes that the studio's own cats, one of them called Murtaugh, were used as reference and that the marketing needed nothing more than this fact.
Correction: the cat cannot die in the fall sense; it can be caught by the creatures called Zurks. Complaints that the game 'let the cat die' were describing a checkpoint.
Twitter, 19 July 2022, videos of tabbies pawing at televisions from every time zone, filed under 'cat reacts to Stray' by people who had not yet started the game themselves.
What does it mean? Write it the way you would say it out loud.
