A philosophical choose-you- own-adventure game

The Stanley Parable is an adventure game developed and published by Galactic Cafe. In it, you play as the eponymous Stanley as he explores a deserted office building. Unlike other games, there are no monsters to fight or puzzles to solve in The Stanley Parable. Instead, the game explores the concept of choice, or the lack thereof, in video games. You can follow the directions of the game's narrator for a quick and satisfying ending, or you can go completely off the rails to find your own. You have complete control over your choices in this game. Or do you? Play it and find out.
