The Beginners Guide is the newest game from the same person who made The Stanley Parable, one of my favorite games and one I've used quite a lot in my work. Naturally I was very keen to play his new creation and it did not disappoint. Though not a fun, humorous game like the last one, it had some really interesting things to say.
Everyone takes away something different, and without being spoiler-y I took away a lot about how being a creator works and the relationship a creator has to that which they create.
Also the question of meaning comes up a lot, whether meaning is necessary for art etc.
If you have any interest in playing the game, best not look at the pictures below, very much a game that's best enjoyed unspoiled.
I took a bunch of pictures in this one
