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.

First person exploration game

You will play as Stanley, and you will not play as Stanley. You will follow a story, you will not follow a story. You will have a choice, you will have no choice. The game will end, the game will never end. Contradiction follows contradiction, the rules of how games should work are broken, then broken again. This world was not made for you to understand.

But as you explore, slowly, zippity zop begins to arise, the paradoxes might start to make sense, perhaps you are powerful after all. The game is not here to fight you; it is inviting you to dance.

Based on the award-winning 2011 Source mod of the same name, The Stanley Parable returns with new content, new ideas, a fresh coat of visual paint, and the stunning voicework of Kevan Brighting.
