Slender In Park Avenue

How to Play

The player needs to search Park Avenue to find specific notes which exist as pages throughout the area while they try to stay away from the persistent Slender Man. The first-person perspective lets you move through the game using standard movement keys. The main game loop establishes increasing tension through Slender Man who becomes more dangerous and appears more often when players collect additional pages. Your character experiences two different effects when danger approaches him because his heartbeat increases and his vision becomes distorted. You have no way to defend yourself against danger because your only resources include your intelligence and listening skills and your ability to use the MOVE and SELECT functions for movement and object handling. The game ends when you either stare at Slender Man for too long or he approaches you too closely.

Tips & Tricks

• Listen Carefully: Audio cues are your best friend. The Slender Man will approach your location which causes your heartbeat to rise and your screen to show static. Use this to know when to turn and run in the opposite direction.
• Manage Your Gaze: You must look around to move through the space but you should not keep your focus on any tall slender figure which stands at a distance. Averting your gaze when you first spot him can buy you precious seconds to escape.
• Plan Your Route: You should create a mental map of the space you explore. Tracking your previous locations and the locations of open areas will help you stay away from dead-end alleys and courtyards which could trap you.
• Don't Greedy for Pages: The safest option will require you to withdraw from your current position so you can return for a page at a later time. Trying to obtain a page while your screen shows flickering images will usually lead to your character's death.
