#17 Slender: The Eight Pages
If you haven’t played Slender: The Eight Pages then chances are you at least heard of the game. This is a freeware indie title that released for Windows and OS X back in 2012. Overall the story is about the folklore of the Slender Man who is ominous and adducts children if they wander alone into dense dark areas. Players start off in the middle of a forest where they must collect all eight pages located throughout the forest. However, the catch is that they must do it before being caught by the Slender Man.
Players only have a flashlight equipped on them along with having the ability to jog for spurts of a few seconds. Throughout the game, players may come across the Slender Man which is showcased by a loud piano noise and static screen. If they stare too long at him, don’t reach the page in time or if the Slender Man catches you then the game ends. Because players enjoyed Slender: The Eight Pages so much, developers released a sequel in 2013 known as Slender: The Arrival.
