I'm sure many people already know about this amazing game. It is honestly one of the most brain-warping things I have ever seen.

I discovered it by watching Markiplier's Let's Plays on youtube:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3tRBEVW0hiAQelcEBZ9cwW86Y6wN-AUF

Which I highly recommend if you are not going to play the actual game itself. The videos contain massive spoilers so it's probably better not to watch them if there is any chance you might play the game in the future.

Without giving too much away: The Stanley Parable is an awesome study in messing with players' expectations and even at times make them start questioning their own sanity. I found the Let's Plays to be hugely entertaining while at the same time giving my brain an itchy feeling like I was close to losing my mind at some points.

Comments on the Let's Plays and/or the game itself welcome but please hide any spoilers. Cheers!

you get the best ending by following the simple instructions you get during the first few minutes, and absolutely nobody does that!

Hahaha, true but:

The game is much more fun and bizarre when you don't follow the narrator...
