Your friendly guide to navigating Chapter 1: Inside The Wall in Stray. Learn the basics, follow your family, and survive your first fall.
Alright, so you've just booted up Stray and you're ready to get going! This first chapter, 'Inside The Wall,' is basically your intro to everything. Think of it as the game's way of saying 'hey, welcome!' and showing you the ropes. You'll learn how to move around, interact with stuff, and get a feel for this unique world. Plus, you'll find out a bit about where our little feline hero comes from and who their pals are.
- 1You start off with your family – a bunch of other cats. The game will prompt you to interact with them. Just go up to each one and give 'em a little nuzzle. Once you've said hi to everyone, you'll all curl up for a nap on a comfy cardboard box.
- 2The next day, a butterfly will land on your ear, waking you up. Follow your friends! They'll lead you down some pipes and across platforms. Just keep moving forward, and if you ever get a bit lost, just give a meow – it helps the other cats find you and keeps you all on the right path.
- 3You'll eventually reach a gap with a loose pipe. Your friends will hop across easily, but this pipe is getting wobbly. When it's your turn, try to cross, but you'll slip and end up falling down into a sewer area. Don't worry, it's supposed to happen!
- 4You'll land in a pretty grim-looking sewer. You'll limp for a bit, but then you'll see a door open with a bright red light. Head towards it.
- 5Inside, you'll encounter your first real challenge: two Zurks. They're small, creepy little things rummaging in some trash bags. This is where the chapter really kicks off!
- Don't stress if you fall – that's how you get to the next part of the game!
- The meow button is your friend; use it to keep your feline companions close.
- This chapter is super chill. You can't die here, and you won't be collecting any memories yet, so just focus on learning the controls and enjoying the atmosphere.
- You'll unlock the 'Missed Jump' achievement for taking that tumble into the sewer.
