Gamasutra - "It's difficult to talk about the first-person choice-wrangler that is The Stanley Parable without drifting in and out of massive spoiler territory, so I thought it would be best to begin this interview with an unmissable "spoiler alert" paragraph."
GB: "Some games reduce stress while others like to play with your mind."
15 games on FIFTEEN pages? That's a NO from me.

I think Inscryption is the best game on that list. PT and Returnal i would offer. Returnal deserves a spot over some of the listed games. Especially after chapter 3. Maybe even Alice MR? Death Stranding? Kojima all together. To much smaller degree Dead Space. I'm spitballing.
I didn't play Thumper enough to see beyond the visual spectacle. Curious choice.
Only makes me think of gatcha loot crate game specifically built to play your mind into becoming an addict.
"From winks & nods to straight-up gameplay-altering sequences, video games often break the fourth wall. Read on for some of the best moments." Mike @ Thumb Culture
Ever since it was released as a mod for Half-Life 2, The Stanley Parable has been a cult phenomenon.
