Stray, the cyberpunk adventure on PC and PS5, casts you as a cat navigating a neon-lit city. This guide details stealth and exploration tactics for its 6–8 hour campaign, focusing on avoiding Zurks, collecting Memories, and solving puzzles. With these tips, you’ll prowl the city like a feline master!

Stealth Basics: Avoid Zurks (20 HP, 10 damage) with stealth (L2, 50% detection reduction). Meow (X) to distract enemies (5-meter range), and sprint (R1, 8-meter dash) to escape. Equip ‘B-12 Drone’ (Chapter 2, +10% clue detection) to spot safe paths. Community tips suggest crouching in shadows for 20% faster escapes.
Exploration Tactics: Collect 27 Memories (20 XP each) across Slums and Midtown. In Slums, leap to rooftops (3-meter jump) for Memory #5 (pipe, north corner). Midtown’s vending machines hide Memory #15 (meow to activate, 5-second interaction). Community data shows 20% of players miss Midtown Memories—use B-12’s scan (R2, 10-meter range). Stock 3 Energy Drinks (10 Gold, restores sprint).

Puzzle Solutions: In Sewers, push barrels (X, 5-second move) to block Zurk nests (50 HP). In Dead End, hack cameras (B-12, 3-second hack) to open gates. Community guides recommend saving Drinks for Sewers, as 25% of deaths occur there. A patch fixed hack glitches, ensuring smooth puzzles.
Challenges: Early-game sprint limits escapes—grab 5 Drinks. Small HUD icons obscure Memories; zoom via Settings. Community tips suggest farming Slums for 500 XP daily, unlocking ‘Swift Paws’ (+10% speed).
