This Stray guide explains how to wear the poncho.

Stray is finally here after months of anticipation. And it hasn’t disappointed.

The new game from BlueTwelve Studio and Annapurna Interactive delivers a puzzle packed adventure where you control a cat on his mission to reunite with his family.

He joins up with robot drone B-12 and the two must work together to open a sealed city and save its robot inhabitants.

Stray offers everything you could want from a game where you play as a cat. Run, jump, scratch – it’s all here. And it’s great fun.

The cat’s adventure in Stray involves solving puzzles every step of the way. Some are easy while others can leave you stuck and testing the limits of your brain power.

One such puzzle is getting the Super Spirit Detergent to exchange for the Electric Cable. Once you have the Electric Cable, you can take it to Grandma and she will make you a poncho in return.

However, once you have the poncho, it’s unclear what exactly you need to do with it. I know I wanted to see my cat wear it!

So, let’s go over how to wear the Poncho in Stray

The Poncho plays an interesting role in Stray. But not they one you would expect. It isn’t simply a fashion item.

This is how to wear the Poncho in Stray: Unfortunately, you can’t wear the Poncho. Instead, it is an essential quest item. The Poncho must be given to Elliot after he requests a blanket to keep him warm. After he puts the Poncho on, he will fix the Broken Tracker for you.

So, there you have it. The cat can’t actually wear the Poncho in Stray – which is a shame. I know I’d love to see what the cute little fella looked like in Grandma’s knitwear.
