If you have downloaded the indie game with the survival horror genre, “Slender: The Eight Pages”, you will find that the game is difficult to finish. Do not be afraid! This article will give you the steps you need to complete and defeat Slender Man. No need for blankets, night lights, or pacifiers.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Playing Slender in Normal Mode
Step 1. Search Slender forest map on Google
Since you are already on this page, you can find it here. Memorize the map until you are sure you can trace it. There are 10 unique buildings, and eight randomly scattered notes.
The presence of 10 locations guarantees a different game every time you play. Not finding a note that you're sure to find is the easiest way to lose
Step 2. Start playing
Slender Man won't appear until you get to the first note, so use this to your advantage. Turn off the flashlight during this time to save battery. If you use it for too long, the battery will run out. Use this safe time to inspect buildings to find where the records are.

However, you can't linger. The longer you search each page, the more difficult the game will be. You will know when this safe time is over when you hear a booming sound.
The same sound will be heard when you have got the first page
Step 3. Get the notes in the bathroom located in the middle of the map first
This, in theory, saves you from being surprised or trapped by Slender Man later. If the note is not there, continue your journey.
Starting from the middle first is your best hope. That way, you don't have to go back on track and you can look for it in the outer circle. Slender Man can only kill if you look in his direction and he is always behind you. Never turn around, never see Slender Man. Simple
Step 4. Take the circular route starting from the bathroom
This method reduces the time it takes to search between records. Following the main path is the best way to maintain your condition.
This game measures your sanity level and stamina. Running too often, your stamina will be lost. You panic, your sanity level drops, and it's game over. Before you lose your stamina and sanity level, shorten the time between each note and seek it out as quickly as possible
Step 5. Remember that Slender Man will get faster and faster
He will follow you crazier for every note you get. Turn on the flashlight once you get three notes, so that if you turn around, you can look away as soon as you see it.
The background music will get more intense for each note you get. To avoid this, simply turn off your speakers. The music can be very distracting
Step 6. Be very careful after the fifth note
If you see him, block his view of the face with an object, so that you can only see his hands or feet. When he is visible on the screen, he will not move. Then back off until you're far enough away from him. Then get out of there!
After about five notes, he will be behind you most of the time. Peeking at him when he's near you will frighten your character and allow you to run really fast. Use this opportunity to run to the rest of the notes, but be aware that doing so can exhaust your character
Step 7. Don't look back when you've had six pages (unless you have the guts to do it
). Slender Man will always be behind you and if you turn around, he will kill you. So keep running until you find the last note.
This is why the bathroom can be difficult for you at the end. If you visit it at the end of the game, you will often turn around, trying to get out of it. You will die quickly
Step 8. Once you get eight notes, walk around until the game ends
Depending on the version of the game, you'll unlock new modes -- cruel, hellish for every player. “Finishing” the game is a misnomer; after this you will only find more difficult levels.
Method 2 of 2: Unlocking Other Modes
Step 1. Unlock “daytime mode” in version 0
9.4.
After getting all the pages from normal mode, you will "wake up" during the day. It may sound easier, but it's not. You don't have to worry about your flashlight, but things get more intense.
-
After “daytime mode,” you will unlock “$20 mode.” In version 0.9.4, if you finish daytime mode, you will wake up again in the dark. Finishing this game is not much different from the normal version, only you will hear the song “20 Dollars” by Ron Browz playing as background music.
- The reason is because some people believe that if you give Slender Man $20, he won't kill you. Cheap right?
- You can select this mode in the settings screen and you can play both at the same time, if you want.
Step 2. For version 0
9.5., you will open “MH mode.” The game will run like the “Marble Hornets” videos on YouTube, using the video record format. After you finish this mode, you can only unlock daytime mode and $20 mode.
Step 3. For version 0
9.7., open the “Marble Hornets” mode first.
And even then just a name change (MH is the same mode). $20 mode removed for copyright reasons.

You also have the option of using a lantern and a light stick. Also, you can pause the game as long as there is no static image on the screen. The more pages you get, the more limited your view will be. The fog will start to come in too.

Tips
- Keeping moving will prevent Slender Man from attacking you from behind.
- Print the map if you can't remember it.
- Battery saving; turn off the flashlight for the first few pages.
- If your game is running slowly, reducing the graphics resolution will make it faster.
- Running when scared (eg when Slender Man approaches you) will make you go very fast, but also reduce the maximum stamina of your character. So use it for the last few notes.
- Slender can't move if you look at it. But you can only see it from a very far distance. Don't use this as a strategy; just remember.
- Make sure you don't look down. You won't see anything and the chances of Slender Man attacking will increase.
- Start running when you have four pages. Slender Man can teleport if you walk.
- Your distance (and whether you turn on the flashlight or not) determines how long you can safely see Slender Man.
- Don't press shift key repeatedly, README.txt mentions in version 0.9.7, pressing shift key once will reduce your stamina by 5 percent. Just hold down the shift key if you want to run.
- If there is a courtyard in the bathroom area, usually in the tunnel there is not. Use these tips to save your flashlight time and battery.
- If you want to fully understand the story behind Slender Man, watch the film.
- Don't play with headphones.
- Don't do this in the dark when alone at home.
