Sprinting allows the player to move faster than jogging, but doing so will decrease the maximum stamina available for jogging and sprinting. This also results in the ability to sprint for a short period of time. A disturbing and shocking sting is played if the Slender Man appears on screen suddenly and close to the player. When he does, and is visible on screen, sanity will start to decrease, the speed of which depends on the distance to him and whether the light is on. Slender Man occasionally appears in the player's field of vision. The player character has the ability to jog, which will tire out the player if done for too long. The player is equipped with only a flashlight to see through the dark it has limited battery life and will eventually shut down permanently if left on for an extended period of time. Slender Man will also teleport itself at will, even when being observed by the player. The player's objective is to collect eight pages located in various areas of the forest while avoiding the Slender Man, a faceless humanoid entity resembling a tuxedo mannequin with tentacle like appendages sprouting from its back which appear when the player collects the fourth page. Slender: The Eight Pages is set in the middle of a forest during the night and is played from a first person perspective. The game is based on the fakeloric figure known as Slender Man, who is known for the abduction of children in mysterious, dark settings. Slender Man has it's moments and the concept is pure gold, this however is more squandered potential.Slender: The Eight Pages, originally known simply as Slender, is a free download indie-developed first-person survival horror video game released in June 2012 as a beta for Microsoft Windows and OS X, utilizing the Unity engine. Hollywood need to go back to the drawing board, hire indie filmmakers to adapt material otherwise we'll just keep getting this Insidious/Conjuring tripe. Sure it looks great, but the plot tail spins out of control by about the halfway mark and that's such a shame as up until then it was showing real potential. Sadly along with the budget comes all the usual Hollywood horror flaws, demonstrating once again how badly Hollywood have lost their way when it comes to the entire genre. With a decent young cast including Joey King and Annalise Basso we're presented with the glossiest and most high budget Slender Man movie yet. So yet again we see a tale of a group of young folks on the run from the Slender Man and spooky things happen. Filmmakers just don't seem to be able to make the most out of the fantastic material presented before them. Alike Lovecraft Slender Man seems to be one of those commonly used subject matters that always seeems to miss the mark. It's not great but it's simply not THAT bad.
This latest version of the Slender Man mythology seems to be universally reviled though I don't entirely understand why.
