Stay

Stay is a graphic adventure about Quinn, who wakes alone in a locked room with only a computer connected to a chat room. You are his sole source of hope, and your choices and response times shape his attempts to escape or can lead him to an untimely end.

Real-time conversations

The game plays out in real time: each minute you spend away leaves Quinn alone for a minute. Leaving conversations or leaving him to fend for himself too long can have consequences. Quinn is on edge, so your replies affect his emotions and whether he trusts you. As a trusted ally, you can hear his findings and deepest thoughts; if you fail him, his emotions may work against you.

Observe and investigate

Webcams let you watch Quinn’s reactions to your comments and see what he does while you are away. You can use what you learn to spot his lies. Across multiple playthroughs, you can explore different rooms and uncover hidden secrets to piece together the full story.

Puzzles and endings

During puzzle sections, you take direct control of Quinn’s actions to help him solve the conundrums inside his prison. The game has 24 chapters, seven different endings, dozens of potential deaths and webs of conversation, and is designed for multiple playthroughs.
