cecil: Nice review :-) I personally think Beginner's Guide is better then Stanley granted either sure beats Gone Home IMHO.
If I had to choose between the two (
TSP vs
TBG), I don't really know which one I'd pick. I think they are both excellent, but for different reasons. After further consideration I guess I'd go with
Stanley: as a game it is more open and interactive, and Kevan Brighting is a much better narrator than David Wreden.
As per
Gone Home, I own it but haven't played it yet. It may very well end up in my 'games completed in 2016' list, though. :)
