So sit back, forget the clock and try to forget it is just a game. The opening tells you to remember times when you felt isolated and alone, draw upon that apprehension and fear. This is a game you crank up the sound, turn off all the lights, and sit in the middle of a fairly empty room. I could see doing this in replay of the game but if you are a true fan of the genre this is counter to all it stands for. The only reason I know this is because one of the XBox achievements is to do that very thing, with some achievements for completing levels in 5 minutes or less.
Technically the game can be played through in 45 minutes. The Arrival features a brand new storyline, improved visuals, great replay value, and most importantly, survival horror at its best.
Slender: The Arrival is the official re-imagining and expansion of the original game created by Mark Hadley, teamed up with the writers behind the Marble Hornets series and the development team at Blue Isle Studios. Created not that long ago as part of a website contest, Slender Man quickly caught on in nightmarish art and self creating folklore that has resulted in Slender: The Arrival, a title that is easy to get lost in and freaked out by. This has been a controversial title recently primarily because of how deep people have bought into this urban legend.
