10 Essential Video Games You Can Beat In Under 3 HOURS

The Stanley Parable is, by no means, a long game. In fact, you can complete it in ten minutes without even trying. Even though there are many branching paths, none of them take more than an hour to explore.

And yet, these routes are so hilarious creative and increasingly meta, you'll be guaranteed to try out every one. Because certain paths are sneakily well-hidden, some players have yet to uncover them, even after dozens of playthroughs. The way the game occasionally changes key elements upon each reset is all the more reason why people keep coming back.

Since the recent expansion, The Ultra Deluxe Edition, includes more routes, endings, and accessories (as well as a reassurance bucket), now's the perfect time to give The Stanley Parable a go, especially if you missed out on it upon its initial release.

If you thought of skipping The Ultra Deluxe Edition because you already played the original, you should reconsider. The expansion has enough fresh material to warrant a purchase, (especially the section where the developers feebly churn out sequels in the hope that one of them lives up to the original).
