Stanley is an office worker who discovers that his coworkers have vanished. As he explores the empty workplace, an unseen narrator describes what he is supposed to do and reacts to what happens.
Follow the narrator's directions or take different routes through the office. Your choices can change the events, the narrator's commentary, and how a run ends; the story also plays with the limits of player choice and game conventions.
The Ultra Deluxe edition adds new routes, choices, and secrets alongside the original experience. Replaying lets you try different paths and uncover more outcomes, with additions including a bucket to carry and places where you can jump.
Players often enjoy the narrator's witty, reactive commentary and the humor that comes from disobeying or surprising him. Reviews also praise the branching outcomes, unexpected turns, and the game's playful reflection on choice and video games. Some players find parts of the expanded content repetitive or the experience short, aimless, or light on conventional gameplay.
