A game with an important point of view to relate and which manages to reach some very uncomfortable places. Unfortunately, it also comes with a very uncomfortable control scheme and uses some really terrible panning cameras. I really want to be able to give this game flying colours, but the input frustrations meant that I quit the game as soon as I'd finished one ending (I think, there wasn't a credits sequence or anything). I did appreciate the thoughtful coda the developer wrote for the Extras option in the main menu, though it took me two reloads of the game to be able to see all the text...! Still - it's nice to see developers treating subjects of this gravitas with some maturity in fixed multicam.

About This Game
"Stay" follows the experience of a motel maid, Cas, as she becomes entangled in a twisted tale of obsession, love, and terror. Unbeknownst to her, a deranged stalker harbors a dangerous infatuation with Cas, leading to a series of threatening letters and a deadly game of survival.
Throughout the game, the player receives letters that reveal her stalker's twisted perception of affection and his increasing desperation to possess Cas.
Letters written to Cas by her stalker include disturbing messages written to real women, collected by the developer through multiple surveys. As such, the content in the game may be disturbing to read and experience. Those who are triggered by mentions/depictions of assault should not play.
"Stay" aims to simulate a PSX survival horror game, utilizing stationary 3rd person cameras and tank controls (the way it's meant to be played) and is intended to be played with a controller. The option to play with a dynamic camera exists, but should be a last resort.
You can stealth and hide through it, or collect weapons to fight back, it's up to you. Exploration influences multiple endings.
