Other games like The Stanley Parable besides Portal?

[Slackerdude74]

I really liked the Portal games and The Stanley Parable, and played both I want more and since there isn't any more of either I want to play other games like them.

All have some elements of TSP, but different ones:

Undertale/Deltarune
DDLC
The Beginner's Guide
Dr Langeskov
Superliminal
Dude, Stop
There Is No Game

TSP is pretty unique. It's not so much a coherent game as a jumble of interesting commentary, ideas and gags Wreden wanted to convey. Not a lot of games are like that, and if they were, they'd be entirely different because they were written by different people. It's interesting that you compare it to Portal because they aren't very similar at all, but The Talos Principle and Superliminal are your best bets for Portal-esque stuff as well as mods like Stories: Mel and Aperture Tag.

beginners guide is pretty obvious one, same dev and similar feel but a lot less comedic, this is pretty far off from the stanley parable but ive always found vrchat to have a similar feeling to its exploration sometimes and also yume nikki and the fangames of it have exploration where you just look at cool stuff, if you like the narration while this is definitely a completely different thing valves developer commentaries might interest you

Another game that might be interesting is INFRA:

Basically "Half-Life 2 without guns"; it focuses on exploration, environmental puzzles, a lot of different areas to visit and some cool lore & secrets. It's also being described as Urban Exploration in Video Game Form. And it's made in the Source Engine just like Portal (2) and the (original) Stanley Parable.
In my opinion this is the best Source Engine Game of all times.
Give it a try, you won't regret it.

This old topic is relevant to this question :

Best wholesome (or not) meta-narrative games on steam?

https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/12/3203747834753294592/

Some of the people understood the question & some of them didn't, but there's some nice lists in there.

Not sure if that's anything you're looking for OP, maybe "meta narrative" isn't the kind of similar that you're after.

(Oh, also, word of advice. Don't post in the "Off Topic" forum (that I just linked to. They classify EVERYTHING as bannable spam for being "off topic". As for whether you'll get dinged or not, seems to be a combination of a dice-roll & personal bias toward users & their communication styles. Asking a question? Spam. Talking about a game on the Steam store? Spam. It's an entrapment scheme, imo. It's also pretty weird that according to Steam Support, the stuff that they sell on Steam is spam but, *shrug* *chuckle*)

Davey Wreden also worked on "The Beginner's Guide" and "Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist". They're both walking sims with commentary thrown in. While both are linear and lack the open-ended paths of "The Stanley Parable," they're totally worth checking out. The first one tells an interesting story about game development and creativity. The second one is a short, humorous story where you can either obey or disobey the narrator's instructions.

Play OneShot, it's incredible and goes into a similar direction. Undertale too.

Jazzpunk is the game that immediately comes to mind to me. I have rarely laughed out loud so much at a game. Also I will second The Beginners Guide.

Oh, I definitely second "Jazzpunk." Such a goofy ass game.

surprised nobody has mentioned Antichamber, also on Steam.

There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension is a really good 4th wall breaking game.... it's weird, it's funny, well worth anyones times
