Fear is faceless.

Slender: The Arrival, a FPP horror game based on a modern urban legend that became so popular, that one might expect to find a bit of truth in it, is now available 25% off on GOG.com. That's only $7.49 for the first week!

That cold shard of glass stuck in your chest, sending chills around your body with every desparate breath you take--that's fear. That sudden dryness in your mouth, when you realize that the worst is about to and it's too late to do anything--that's fear. That hot rush causing you to sweat faster than you can even start to think rationally--that's fear. That feeling of spinning in your head as you stare down and see that it's a long way to go--that's fear. That impulse to scream and run when the light suddenly goes out at the flick of a switch--that's fear. That urge to lay down and curl up motionless at the sudden noise right behind you--that's fear. Fear--one of the humankind's eldest and closest companions. It helped us to survive when the wilderness was still untamed and the night wasn't yet torn apart with the flashes of electric lights. We've learned to overcome our terrors. We're being told that it's a good thing to face your fears. But how do you face one that is faceless?

Slender: The Arrival is a FPP survival horror game that continues the mythos of the Slender Man, an urban legend phenomenon. Made by the people who brought you the original Slender: The Eight Pages, the Marble Hornets web series, and the original propagator of Slender lore, this game takes the experience to a whole new level. It uses high-end graphics, intense gameplay, and unsettling soundtrack (included in MP3 format with this release) to make your heart race and your mind stop time after time. If you're looking for a game that will blast you out of your comfort zone - here it is.

There's nothing in the world that could possibly help you prepare yourself for Slender: The Arrival, now for only $7.49 on GOG.com. The offer lasts until Tuesday, April 16, at 10:59AM GMT.
More horror? Some people will be glad I guess.
Is this that game that has been relatively popular around the gaming net lately?
Slender: The Arrival, the arrival.
Wouldn't these games sell better around Halloween?
interesting release.

You mean releasing them 6 months after their release date?
Interesting release. I wasn't aware GOG was getting this one, but it's cool they did. :)

I think I saw some reviews a few days ago that were more or less positive. I tried the original Slender last summer and it was definitely an effective horror mechanic.
meh like the trailer but hated the first slender game, didn't like the mechanics at all because it felt really cheap... and since i guess this is the same game with better graphics and a bigger world i'll pass.

I thought so too but if I recall correctly it was free, no?
Damn, GOG! My wallet is in pain, and it's all because of you!
Instabuy I guess...
Oh I know, it's about the arrival of Slender! You have to prepare a welcome party! For slender.

"Survival horror goes back to its roots; use your instincts to survive"
Huh, and I thought roots of survival horror were "Get over the shitty camera angle to survive"

Being a big fan of horror games I might pick that one up eventually. I just hope that it doesn't feel too cheap or rushed or something.
Nice, played the original free version and liked it, good to see this here.

Is it just me or are the recommended graphics card specs a little high for a game like this?
Well, this certainly looks interesting!
