I kinda had the original version of this game spoiled for me by watching YouTube let's plays, and so when more endings were announced I was excited to finally have a chance to play through this game blind. However, I feel like I had more fun watching someone else play this game than playing it myself. This is still a fantastic game, but when there's not much game play besides walking down corridors and listening to the narrator, I started wondering if it was worth owning it myself.

To summarise, if you know nothing about the Stanley Parable, buy it! But if you've seen a let's play of it before, it might not be worth getting...

50% of this game is exactly what it advertises itself as: a cross-platform remaster of The Stanley Parable. As for the other 50%... well, I can't say much on the subject for fear of spoilers, but I will mention one thing only: it involves a bucket.

Whether you're a newcomer or a veteran, this version of the game is the recommended one. I, myself, never played the original game before, but this is definitely one of my favorites already.

[For newcomers specifically, here's a tip: for your first run, follow the Narrator's instructions to the letter and press the "OFF" button at the end to experience his intended story, and thus, what the game ultimately revolves around. For your second run and onward, feel free to go as far off the rails as you want.]
