The less you know about the game before playing it, the better.Don't read the readme, trust me, the less you know, the better. WASD, hold shift to run, right click toggles flashlight (and yes the battery is limited), left click collects pages. Oh one more thing. ...............Don't look at it.

Re: Slender
I've seen a lot of videos on this one, so it's already been "spoiled" for me.
Always watches. No eyes.

Re: Slender
Played it, not really scary, mind you I spent most of the time being frustrated with the walking speed.

Re: Slender
Walking speed was rectified in later patches, if you played an earlier version. This gets really unnerving and is played best if you play it in the dark with headphones on, on a large screen.

Re: Slender
I actually first played the game just three days ago and still found walking around mind numbing. The compound with all it's tight corners was actually a little creepy I will concede.

Anyway, I saw some game play of the game and it was pretty scary. BUT (insert lawyer voice here)! My computer is very good, so I couldn't even walk without having a 53 drop of FPS. And my FPS before that drop was 6.

Re: Slender
You're actually trained to aim for the center-mass, since the head is such a small target. But then again, I digress.

Re: Slender
Especially because in real life you have more vital organs in your chest. A puncture heart or lung is pretty much insta-death.

A shot to the brain or through anything that would destroy access to the brain is instakill. ON TOPIC, the game seemed pretty buggy on a few videos I watched. Where you could actually spot slender teleporting across and right infront of you. I wonder if he can swim.

Re: Slender
A shot to the brain will most likely send a jolt through all the muscles and nerves, thus all the twitching that is usually seen. The only way to fully prevent it is to hit the medulla oblongata, which is, as previously stated, only a few centimeters big.

A shot to the heart stops blood from pumping, a shot to the lungs prevents you from breathing. Either way you die fast.

Re: Slender
I don't think slendy walks it looks to me as if he teleports.Maybe he his a supernatural telepathic being? I like how the game bombards you with questions but the scariness wears off when you have several jumps . I wonder if there's going to be a sequel?
