Slender Man

Hey this is Winston and my first post today is something called Slender Man.

A horror indie game created by Parsec production. First off in order to understand the game one must understand what is slender as the game was based off a mythical being called slender.

Slender man is a tall faceless man and usually appears in a black suit, however it is what people assume he looks like as no one has determined what he actually is. He is a mythical being that dates around the 16th century to prevent children from going into the woods alone as slender man abducts little children and kills them. What makes slender man fascinating is the mysterious side of him. The game gives the player the role of a yound girl venturing into the woods collecting notes left over by other children. There is a total of 8 post the player must collect, however as the player draws closer slender man also draws close to the player.The player has a flash light that gets dimmer every time you use it. If you stare at slender long enough you automatically lose and his face appears in a distorted screen. The environment itself is set at night with random houses and tall trees. As the game is created by a small group of people the graphics itself is pretty average. Slender has the magical ability to teleport behind or near the player if given the chance. This game is pretty scary and i would give it a 5 out of 5.
