The Beginner's Guide Critic Reviews and Review Scores
Eurogamer
Jeffrey Matulef
Essential
The second game from the creator of The Stanley Parable is an intensely personal character study and one of the most daring games in years.
IGN
Lucy O'Brien
8 / 10.0
The Beginner's Guide poses a number of academic questions around the nature of choice, interactivity, and creativity. While it offers no firm answers, it's one of the most thought-provoking and ultimately disarming interactive experiences I've had all year, and one I won't easily shake off.
PC Gamer
Tyler Wilde
69 / 100
A peculiar experience that's personal, sincere, and full of questions to unpack, though it asks them far too bluntly.
Game Informer
Jeff Marchiafava
8 / 10.0
Filling your head with questions that have no easy answers, The Beginner's Guide is confusing, thought-provoking, and unlike anything you've ever played.
GameSpot
Edmond Tran
8 / 10
The Beginner's Guide is a fascinating journey into the thoughts and processes involved in the creation of a video game, and the people that make them.
