About The Beginner's Guide
The Beginner's Guide is a narrative experience that guides you through a series of experimental game worlds while exploring themes of creation, interpretation, and human connection. With no objectives or traditional mechanics, it's a deeply personal story about misunderstanding and the struggle to comprehend someone you care about.
The Beginner's Guide is a narrative video game from Davey Wreden, the creator of The Stanley Parable. It lasts about an hour and a half and has no traditional mechanics, no goals or objectives. Instead, it tells the story of a person struggling to deal with something they do not understand.

Utena's first attempt to save Anthy?! Creatives will relate, do-gooders will relate, and people hanging onto a knife's edge of sanity will relate too! Incredible story: I won't play again!11 found this helpful
I liked the graphics and gameplay, but the storyline and narration felt a bit cringy and awkward. I'm convinced the guy speaking had a fedora
This game was recommended to me when i asked for games with unpolished, out of bounds aesthetics, i can't recommend it to anyone who is looking for that, it's almost there, but is ruined by a guy talking your air off and not really having free range to move because everything is scripted, very linear gameplay. I didn't really enjoy it for what it is supposed on it's own either, i get what this game is trying to say and achive, i do not like how it's in my face and basically being spoonfed to me. It would have occupied me if the information we are constantly bombarded with were scattered in text instead. It's a good game if you like a walking simulator that is also kind of a loud book, it's not a bad game by any means it could be that i'm just picky in general and i was kinda set up to be dissapointed.
I comeback to this game once in a while to enjoy it as a movie with friends that are not gamers, it illustrates aspects of indie game development, game design tools, but most of all that artistic expression can exist in a vacuum for our own pleasure, without being bound by external validation.
I'm surprised I never wrote a review of this back when I originally played this. By far one of the best video games as a piece of art I've ever experienced. It's a wonderful museum and a bit of a rollercoaster. The narrative is simple enough, but the foundation of the concept on the perception of art makes it so good. Highly recommended, one of my favorites for sure.
is pretty cooooolll, uhhh not sure what to say here but if you like walking around and listening to interesting thingy then play the damn game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.
