Players praise Straya's ambitious scope, strong thematic execution, and impressive technical performance for a solo-developed title, with particular appreciation for its genuine passion and regular updates.

fantastic idea, good layout but a very very average execution. as a very passionate aussie i wanted to enjoy it so badly and i love the genre of game which is how i found it to begin with. glad it was 75% off when i got it but thats still too much for this game1 found this helpful
Outstanding game. Plenty of passion. Hunt animals that aggressively approach for money, participate in activities, minigames, explore. Vehicles, supernatural and rpg elements. The game still gets updated a few times a month. Pretty impressive overall for what the game is worth and is.
very cool game, actually runs well and looks great, better than most games, even on my old gtx780.
Really amazing game by a solo developer. Blown away by the amount of content in this game and the sheer scale of the map. Ripper!
