Slender is a free survival/psychological horror video game released in June 2012 by Parsec Productions. It is one of those games that is occasionally updated to feature new content. Slender is about trying to escape from a terrifying creature known as the Slenderman. The game begins in a forest at night and the player is only equipped with a torch containing a battery that must be conserved. The player can't interact with any of the objects in the environment, apart from the controls which are used to walk, turning the torch on and off, picking up a page and running. The objective is to find eight notes, which are attached to various landmarks around the environment. There are nine maps, the first one being the darkened forest, five of which have already been released, with a sixth one due for release on the 27th September 2012 and two more to follow in the next couple of months. They are named Sanatorium (which is a kind of hospital), Hospice, Elementary, Mansion, Claustrophobia, 7th Street, Prison and Carnival. Because the game is updated every now and then, the ending of the version varies depending on the version. 
Due to the game's overwhelming success, a sequel is due to be released in the near future, known as Slender: The Arrival. Unlike the original game, this isn't free. What with the impending release of the sequel, the original game has actually been renamed Slender: The Eight Pages.
