Stanley’s having a really weird day—and in the mobile version of this acclaimed adventure game, you’ll make all sorts of bold choices to save (or not save) him from certain doom.
I enjoyed this so much more than I thought I would. I first expected interactive fiction (an animated choose your own adventure) or maybe they’d throw in increasingly complex coding puzzles, which would be fine but I wouldn’t pay $15. This was so much more witty, dare I say brilliant, and I laughed out loud several times at the British “host.” The cheesy 80s style ad they made for the paywall was HYSTERICAL and I would have paid just to show my admiration for that. Well done.
Like the title suggests I don’t see it. It’s amazing. It’s great. The narrator is funny sometimes serious and you’re getting a new play through every time a new experience if you will every player is not the same. Even though it’s $15 it’s not recycle garbage. It’s fun and again new every time so if you haven’t already go get it personally I think it is amazing
Very interesting and fun game. Add the steam achievements though because the test achievement joke doesn’t really work if you don’t even have achievements. Also if your game crashes you should probably get a new device because this isn’t an AAA 60 dollar game
I love the Stanley parable (I am a huge fan, believe me) but there is one, rather oppressing problem that consists within my gameplay. Every time I get 2 endings it soft locks the game until I pay for the ultra deluxe. Now normally I just uninstall and then reinstall which works but it is starting to get annoying. My suggestion is instead of the paywall there is 2 doors, the door on the left will have you pay for ultra deluxe while the door on the right lets you continue to use the free version while the narrator reminds you how cheap you are and does everything to try and stop you from going on the door on the right, but ultimately he can’t and when you boot up the game next time, it will be normal except the new content door is there, attempting to enter it will require you to pay. Passing the door will make the narrator make a snarky comment on how cheap you are.
Didn’t know what to expect buying this game but I really liked the idea of Stanley the office worker pushing buttons because that’s what he’s told to do. Sometimes I wander around the office. It’s a soothing experience. Narrator is fascinating. Simple game mechanics. It would be nice to sit down on a chair though and press keys to pass time. I had no issue paying for the game. Lovely graphics and imaginative scenarios. I open up this game when I want a break from my own working pressing keys on a computer.
I guess when I bought the deluxe version, I expected more than the free trial offered… there isn’t any more. The graphics are awesome and it’s entertaining for 10 minutes or so, I was just hoping to see at least a few more areas to explore after paying just to do the same thing again. Well done creators, maybe add a bit extra for your paying customers!
