Despite this, I still get excited when someone across the globe merely whispers the character&#8217;s name. Fortunately for me, Reddit user QValem recently uploaded a video and installation instructions for his fan-made Slender game in VR.<\/p>\n<p>Judging by the brief preview below, it seems like the game itself takes heavy inspiration from the original <em>Slender: The Eight Pages<\/em> release, rather than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.relyonhorror.com\/latest-news\/slender-the-arrival-coming-switch\/\"><em>The Arrival<\/em><\/a>, or any other number of fan-games. As of now, the game only works with the Oculus Quest, and QValem mostly considers the project to be more of a learning experiment than a full-fledged game. If you are interested in trying out what QValem has clobbered together, you can read the installation instructions <a href=\"https:\/\/uploadvr.com\/slender-man-vr-quest\/?fbclid=IwAR0JNZLgVCEU2D6HFN7Tv-9tLbQ1o80Y5KeeWZonpBZoIsfrlQJ3THSetqA\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/OculusQuest\/comments\/camvp5\/ive_recreated_slender_man_on_my_oculus_quest_to\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t gotten on with the VR trend (<em>VR Chat<\/em> almost got me), but I&#8217;m glad this got made. Given what Slenderman games are, VR is a natural fit for the property. Perhaps if the timing for the VR and Slendy trends were more aligned we&#8217;d be seeing even more Slender games (as if people didn&#8217;t have more than enough).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you
