The Stanley Parable - The Adventure Book

[Deloctyte]

Dear Galactic Cafe, listen closely, as I'm giving you this one for free.

A written "Choose your own" adventure book of, or set in the "universe" and style of The Stanley Parable. Hell, kickstart it if you need to, it would sell like bloody hot cakes!

Who's with me? :D

Isn't the game basically already a "choose your own adventure" book, but better?

Yep. This is a better medium for what they want to bring across, and they already did that. No need to milk it for moneys...

I think just a book in general based off the game would be amazing. Like if each chapter was a different ending but the endings begin to overlap and twist near the end.

How would that even work?
When Stanley came to a set of two open doors, he entered the door on his left.
{if you go left, turn the page}
{if you go right, go to page 27}
That would be weird to read I think.

You get used to it :). I used to have books that worked just that way when I was little. I loved them so much I started writing/drawing my own at some point, endlessly making little booklets with ever more pages ^^

Choose your own adventure books were my favorite books as a young teen. They tied in very nicely with my interest in RPGs.

This is like a computerized choose your own adventure. I'm not sure a book version is necessary, but I wouldn't say it was a bad thing.

You should go buy one, then! I reccommend the Lone Wolf series if you can manage to get your hands on a few of them.
