I played this game and I don’t understand it, what is the point ? honestly the performance of the narrator was amazing and was my favourite part of the game but otherwise I don’t understand what the “message” is.
spoiler
and like, who is stanley ? who is the narrator ? how come stanley can hear narrator’s voice ? if stanley is in a game and we are playing that game, then narrator should be in the game too, somehow he is in the game and not in the game at the same time ??
If you’re asking all these questions, you’re trying too hard to “get” the game.
It’s kind of a humor game, kind of a satirical take on how games in general just kind of expect you to follow along but in SP you can do all kind of “not what we’re here for” shit like sitting in a closet for twenty minutes. Is it riveting gameplay? Not usually, but it was worth the $5 I paid for it. I certainly have gotten more than $5 of entertainment out of it.
Totally understand if that kind of game isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I certainly wouldn’t have played it in highschool. Or at least I’d be bored with it very quickly.
And with all the different paths in the game, replay is okay because you probably don’t remember all of them.
