What an emotional journey! Stray Gods is a perfect mix of mystery, romance, and musical genres. It's a little bit short, but I think narrative-focused games, such as Stray Gods, shouldn't be too long, or else they're likely to bore you after a while. (You can find tl;dr in the end.)

Besides the amazing soundtrack (it's a musical game, of course it'll be amazing, duh!), one thing I want to point out is the excellent choice of visual art style. Hand-drawn styled graphics and still animations allow the player to easily follow both the songs/lyrics and the things happening on the screen without missing anything.

I also really liked how the abruptly starting singing sections that we usually see in musicals are explained in a way that's very fitting to the story. To be fair, I'm definitely not a musical play or movie gourmet or anything. I rarely watch musicals, though I've always found it a bit weird that in musicals, characters speaking with each other in a scene suddenly switch to singing for no logical or realistic reason. I know the emotional or romantic scenes are usually reflected with music in this genre, but still, I can't help but find this sudden change of pace a bit odd. However, Stray Gods, thanks to its fantasy-heavy plot, offers a reasonable excuse for this trope by telling us that all these musical sections are actually happening because our protagonist is using her power and forcing people to sing what they have in their hearts.

Tl;dr if you like Telltale-like games that offers interactive stories, or you love musicals and want to try the genre as a video game, definitely give Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical a chance!
