I Cannot Recommend The Stanley Parable Enough

[Cooper]

I played the original mod, and I wanted to show it in English class (when I teach) and have like, two students play it, then have a discussion about the narrative and literary aspects of it.

Now it's a full game.

And it's even better.

The idea behind the game?

The narrator wants to tell a little (ironic) story about freedom, with some marxist overtones.

You don't have to join him.

This might upset him.

The demo is its own game. The trailer is a fake Lets Play with a guy who doesn't hear the narrator, and goes kinda nuts.

I'm having so much fun with it, and I still want to show it in English class, but I'm definitely planning on showing the new one.

I love this game so much!! The first time I played through I did the opposite of what the narrator told me to do every time lol.

Very cool! Thanks Coops.

TTO got it for me this weekend. I am LOVING it. First game ever that I have literally burst out laughing while playing. Brilliant. The sarcasm of the narrator is amazing

[Cooper]

I enjoy staying in rooms and watching him get mad at me. The broom closet is the best.

I was laughing so hard at the broom closet I had tears running down my cheeks.

Did you try to get the achievement for room 430? It's pretty funny too.

[Cooper]

Crawl out the window (it's one of the desks by the window where the chair is a bit out, same room as 430 I think). It takes a bit of effort (run up to the chair a few times, keep holding the forward button, then crawl over the desk divider and through the window.) When he asks you a question, say yes.

He'll start singing.

Oh my god that was brilliant!

This game just keeps getting better and better.

Two more fun ones:

Jump off the platform you're lead onto if you ignore him. Both onto the ground and onto the hallway below.

Unplug the phone.

Yay! I broke the game!

Felt a little bad for the narrator though after I did. He sounded so pleading at the end when the credits rolled.

Of course, that's not gonna stop me from screwing around some more.

Raedwulf Gamer on YouTube is doing a hilarious play through right now.

OMG, I just got that ending too! LUVVIT!

I would get it, but lately I've gone entirely overboard on Steam purchases.

Aaand next month the X-com expansion is out. Yeah might be a while before I get to Stanley's Parable.

Has anyone seen the minecraft ending? I got to watch that one on Twitchtv.
