Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical
Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical’s toughest decisions aren’t about selecting a romantic partner, picking which skills to level up, or even which items to wear. Instead, the Netflix game’s best moments stem from tough choices that define the story, making you wonder if the right decision even exists.
Throughout the Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical episode, you’re faced with difficult situations that require actual thought and sacrifice. Whether you’re deciding who to trust or which of your friends to save, there are no right answers, and your decisions can lead to regrets.
The Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical episode, “O Love, Where Art Thou?”, kicks off with Grace having only seven days to solve a murder mystery before she’s killed. Choosing between her best friend and a god for help becomes a difficult decision during a song number, and the charming Pan presents a challenging choice that has me questioning my decision every time I play.
Deciding between two characters who clearly love each other is a tough call, and Stray Gods forces you to consider the doubt in their hearts and the words they choose. Convincing them to be together becomes a stressful experience, as you’re forced to choose the right lines and hope things go their way.
During a musical duel with Persephone, you have the option to show her compassion or try to claim victory. The outcome of the duel changes the story’s path, and I was forced to make this choice twice because I unknowingly chose the wrong lines the first time around.
Stray Gods also has moments where you’re forced to make a difficult decision with lasting consequences. After learning about Medusa’s tragic backstory and hearing her terrifying singing, I expected to sympathise with her. Unfortunately, her willingness to kill anyone who gets in her way made it difficult to feel bad for her.
During a scene at the bar, you’re forced to choose who sits on the throne. I chose Apollo, and later on, I learned that my choice put Persephone’s life in danger. Choosing who sits on the throne has significant repercussions that affect the story’s path, and I can’t help but wonder if there is a way to save both characters.
Another difficult choice involves Aphrodite’s trauma and desire for a reprieve from life. While it took me a few play sessions to warm up to the flirty goddess, her story of trauma and her desire for a reprieve from life ultimately made me feel guilty for choosing her over Persephone.
In another scene, you’re forced to investigate Calliope’s fate. After battling Cerberus, you encounter the Furies, who threaten to harm a friend to get you to turn over Calliope. Your friend ultimately makes the ultimate sacrifice, but you have the option to go into the Underworld with Persephone to save them.
Sadly, Persephone’s bluff is revealed, and you have the option to bring your friend back to life at the cost of your own. I’ve made this choice twice, and both times, the friend I’ve known since the beginning of the game is taken from me.
