As we all know. Alot of horror games are being thrown into the action genre. [cough]deadspaceresidentevil[/cough] Slender is one game that offers the true core gameplay of a horror experience and shows that you don't need high tech graphics or a high budget to produce one. Slender isn't just a game though. Its based upon a series of creeypasta, images, and videos of an evil being known as Slender man. yeah I bet you all know already but for those who don't I recently came across it and played it. It is scary. Looks like Timotei himself gave it a go too. Well if you want to know more, IGN has a video showing off some gameplay and share their thoughts about it. The game itself is free to download. [youtube]wAu1tDWDBoI[/youtube]
I personally love the game. Its simple enough to play, it is not very scary (In my opinion) and the goal is simple.
Honestly I'm to scared to play this game. I can not for the life of me handle horror and/or scary things. Which means I should record myself playing so you can all laugh at me.
Saw this a few weeks back while looking around on youtube; Was surprised at the quality of this game for it being free, but it doesn't scare me, freaks me out a little but I think if this game designer really wants to scare you, he should of made it so when the Slenderman catches you, your character screams. Something like that would scare a lot of people crapless.
I have this game, I still think Amnesia is better with all the story line and custom maps. But this game is still very creepy and scary but I'm not the biggest of fans of it... Actual I was playing this with my brother last night and he does things like scar acting and horor atractions and he still screamed like a little girl at it.
I just played it for the first time. I was entering a room in the bathroom building, and suddenly that thing just... stood there! Jimmies were rustled. And I thought I was a pretty capable horror gamer, lol... This game rocks, I think it's scarier than Amnesia because it isn't scripted, which makes it new and unpredictable every time you play it. It's simple, but has everything a good horrorgame needs. I have spoken.
Never really found Slenderman that scary. But,I'll keep my mp3 player close to me while I play, just in case.
The idea is simple and it can keep people on edge. It's amazing how people can simple yet great ideas like these. (And this is coming from a future game developer)
At a party I went to, three of my friends went to the basement to play Slender in the dark. About 15 minutes later, they came up screaming
I played it, it was pretty creepy until I saw Slenderman, the graphics quality just makes him look more silly than scary, it's almost like playing 007 GoldenEye.
Yeah Sparky i think you would be scarier... i mean imaginge you run around in the forest, you turn around and theres a huge toung liking you in the face... woah... But joke aside i reallly hate this game! I hate it for beeing so scary And therefore i love it... hard to explain First time we played my boyfriend bit his toung and i nearly smashed something on the floor...
