An office worker, a narrator telling your life, and the unsettling freedom to disobey him.

With no direct preference vote, the detail reveals a very particular signature. Fun finishes almost at the very top, ahead of 98% of games, and the wish to rediscover it follows right behind. No surprise: the whole point of the Stanley Parable is in the surprise and the dozens of hidden paths you want to try again. Attachment and controller feel stay decent, while art style and the desert island pick fall lower, fitting for a short, conceptual experience, not a grand visual spectacle.

Next to other indie games, it is a unique meta work, questioning with humor the relationship between the player, the game, and its creator.

So, who is it for? For you if you like fine humor, games that play with your expectations, and experiences apart. Much less if you want action, length, or a beautiful playground.
