By describing this game at all, I risk ruining it
Briefly

The article reflects on the significance of The Beginner's Guide, a game by Davey Wreden, known for his acclaimed work The Stanley Parable. The author emphasizes the importance of experiencing the game without prior knowledge to fully appreciate its artistry. Wreden presents a narrative that explores themes through the gameplay of a friend’s projects, intended to evoke emotional responses. The piece expresses excitement for Wreden's future work, indicating the depth and innovative storytelling found in his creations, contrasting this with the overlooked nature of his second game.
To describe The Beginner's Guide is in some ways to undo its effectiveness as a work of art.
Wreden is an author who clearly approaches each game with a desire to say something different.
I'm here to argue that Wreden is an author who clearly approaches each game with a desire to say something different, which makes me wildly excited for this year's Wanderstop.
The game progresses from here, with the narrator providing commentary on the games you are playing, starting with an odd Counter-Strike map.
