What players say

Players say Stay Close is a short co-op horror game, beatable in 2-3 hours, that relies on a tense atmosphere and a few monster types. Reviews are mixed on value, with some calling it fun for a quick session and refunding, while others cite bugs, softlocks, and no Portuguese subtitles as dealbreakers.
