Ultra Deluxe is easily going to be one of the finest gaming experiences of the year, despite its short length relative to most. This is a game that gets in, says exactly what its creators wanted to say, and then gets out…maybe. The most ridiculous elements of the original are still perfectly preserved here, and then amplified in the new content, letting the player experience exactly what they want to. I wouldn’t change a single thing about it.
The 2022 release adds an Ultra Deluxe desert to the menu, elevating the night out from a lovely dinner to an indulgent feast. It’s a dining experience worth returning to for fans who already count The Stanley Parable among their favourite meals, balanced with providing the perfect place for new players to take a chance on something different. Regardless of which door you enter, the philosophical taste is likely to linger long after you’re finished.

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe isn't like most games. It doesn't include fighting monsters, playing minigames, talking to NPC's or doing parcour. Still, TSPUD is one of the most fun experiences you'll ever have in a game. The narrator has a wonderfull personality, the bucket adds to an unexpected twist for all of the endings, which are so unbelievable many. As of April 2024, there are more than 50 endings, yet it could still come an update that will add more. If you have a few dollars on your steam account and don't have any games to play, I highly suggest trying out this game.

Eu literalmente chorei jogando Stanley parable, a ideia do jogo é incrível e a ultra deluxe tem uma ideia melhor ainda, e o narrador é tão bom que ele faz a sua conexão com o jogo

The Stanley Parable once again charmed me with its narrative and its constant toying with the player. There’s not much game in it but despite that (or maybe because of that) it says a lot about other games and gamers. It’s a brilliant, one-of-a-kind title, now available in a richer, longer version.
While it may not be as truly groundbreaking as the original, The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe is a must-play for fans of the original – and if you’ve never experienced the game, it’s the perfect place to learn what made the original so brilliant while finding a number of new twists.
The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe is an adventure that continues to surprise after years. It is a journey into the human mind that manages to entertain, make people laugh and think at the same time.
Would you like an inexpensive getaway from the video game matrix for a
few hours? Here's your ticket.
Most importantly, the old jokes are still funny. [Issue#372, p.116]
I have played the original "The Stanley Parable" back when it came out in 2013 and I really enjoyed that game though I can't really say that I expected a sequel or a "reboot" to come out. This one feel more like a DLC to the original game rather then a whole new experience so it feels kind of strange rating it because by doing so I'm also in part rating the original The Stanley Parable game. The game just like it's previous iteration is filled with the narrators various witty commentary both about video games, the nature of video games but also life in general. I really fell in love with this narrative back in 2013 and obviously it still holds strong to this day. As for the gameplay, it isn't much, you go around various rooms, pressing buttons and experiencing the many endings this game has in store for you, always starting over from the same place. There are a few "secrets" in the game to discover as well, but this is not a puzzle game so don't expect that coming into it. If this were the original, I'd probably give it a much higher rating, but from my own standpoint I'm not a big fan of companies re-cycling and re-releasing the same games they already made 10 years ago, with a little extra content and maybe slight improvements on top. I said the same for Skyrim, and I'm going to say the same for this game whilst it is a masterpiece of it's time and it's genre, I would have rather had an original game instead of one that I've already played.

Personal Standup
Amm it's not a game, it's a show / performance / standup, soooo you need to know about it. I don't understand why it's in games section and why it's so overrated. So I don't want to use ordinary game scoring like visual, gameplay, story etc., but describe my feelings.
So, I like the idea, but it is such a boring performance. To be honest I waste about 3-4 hours on this and every time I thought that yeah narrator tell some funny "gamers insights" buuut I don't want to play in THIS, just to check some "easter eggs". Because it's totaly not working for me IMHO. Many moments are very obvios. So instead of 4 hours game, I will preffer to watch standup or show on the same theme.
All in all I definetely can not reccomend to PLAY in this game, but you can check stream on youtube and don't lose anything. In new era of streaming when I can watch all story-based games on youtube Stanley Parable: UD feels very archaic.

Summary The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is an expanded re-imagining of 2013's The Stanley Parable. You will play as Stanley, and you will not play as Stanley. You will make a choice, and you will become powerless. You are not here to win. The Stanley Parable is a game that plays you.
