Honestly I think I prefer this to The Stanley Parable because, despite not only being a meta look at games and the relation between player, game and game designer, it is also a about people and art in general. I also feel it has much more emotional depth. I can see a lot of my own flaws in Davey and the game makes me feel guilty in being complicit in what he is doing. I also see myself in Coda as well.
Even after thinking about this a lot I still feel there is layers I do not understand, and I think it works like that with each interpretation being as real as the next. A short experience but one that I will not soon forget.
