14. Slender: The Arrival

Do not look directly at Slender Man or go insane

It seems your friend has become another victim

Slender Man is after you in Slender: The Arrival

Lauren decides to go visit her friend.  She finds the house left open, but her friend is nowhere to be found.  Drawings and scratches decorate the walls, telling of a horrific creature known only as Slender Man.

Inspired by the horrifying internet meme created by Eric “Victor Surge” Knudson, the game expands the lore of the popular supernatural create known to many as Slender Man.  Play as Lauren in a first-person perspective as she tries to find the whereabouts of her friend in this chapter-based horror game.  Covering an expansive world, players must solve different puzzles to progress through the story, often collecting specific items.  Slender Man is after you, and knows where to find you.  There is no hiding.  Only a flashlight guides you in this world, limiting it to only what the light shines upon it.  It can provide safety, but it can attract entities other than the faceless monster.

Recent updates have made the game compatible with the Oculus Rift, giving the players a real first-person perspective as they try and flee from Slender Man.
