Slender : The arrival
Slender : The arrival PC DOWNLOAD
Slender: The Arrival is not the first game to star the first popular Internet-mythology monster Slenderman, but it is the best of the lot. In it, you play a woman who visits a friend only to find the friend has been taken by the eponymous baddie.
Calling this game a first-person shooter isn’t quite accurate; first-person explorer is a better term. There are no weapons. You have a flashlight; that’s it. If you encounter danger, you must run. When the monster chasing you can teleport right in front of your face, you’ll be left with one of two reactions: A scream of fear that Slenderman has you, or a cry of anger at the game being cheap and not playing fair.
A lot of the game’s ‘scare factor’ relies on the player knowing the Slenderman mythos, and more importantly, ‘buying into’ it. If you can’t do that, the game is just a poor, unfun experiment in dodging a monster that apparently chases you at random. But for those who know and enjoy the Slenderman mythos, there’s much more here to enjoy. It’s scary. There’s enough plot to make you want to find the next part of the story, and like anything Slender-related, there’s more there… if you’re willing to risk your sanity to hunt down the secret level.
In conclusion: If you don’t know Slenderman, this isn’t the place to start. But if you enjoy the Slenderman mythos, this is a great experience and a great way to add to his legend.
