Hear from the Players – Slender Rising Reviews

Find out what gamers are saying about Slender Rising:

We have played this game for 3 days and we are already hooked this is one of those thriller games that will really freak you out like we said you should get this game.


We’ve had this game ever since it came out, and its amazing that it still manages to give us thrills every time we play it. The environments, the sound design, the music, it all comes together to make a truly console-quality experience (at least when it came out.) Even though its old, Slender Rising (and Slender Rising 2) are both still scary and still fun to this day. They are simple, but we think thats part of their magic. We do wish this game was still updated however, as playing it on an iPhone 12 Pro certainly emphasizes the fact that this game was designed for iOS 4 and much less powerful devices… We would love to see this game updated, or maybe even a new game in the series built for modern devices! Either way, its impressive that it still runs fine without bugs on iOS 14. Im also impressed with the large number of options available in the game. Its is highly configurable in both gameplay and controls, and this actually adds some replay value as well. If you find this game and are a fan of horror games, we highly recommend it even in 2021!! Sit down with some headphones in the dark, and prepare for a genuinely scary experience.


This game is so addicting, yet terrifying at the same time. Our friend and we play this on the school bus sometimes to awaken ourselves. We highly recommend his app, as it is the best slender game we have gotten so far…


We wish theres more Game Over Screens and uhh… More maps.. When will that be coming? Or not..


This has got to be the most quality, content filled and chilling slender we’ve ever played, but for some reason is not on top. More work went into this game then the infamous "Slender the Arrival," we don’t understand why the crap slenders are more famous than these games, in our opinion this game is more fun and just all around better than all the slenders we’ve played and we’ve played ALL OF THEM!!


We wish that u can take control of slender and make a multiplayer matches this will make players want to play this game because its fun and scary! Anyways the graphics r amazing and the model of slenderman is realistic we hope the creater doesnt delete this game because we just bought it.


This game is good for the price. We like the variation of modes and the logic for The lost ward not having storm is cool. This game is awesome for just a quick spook and good for long play sessions! Awesome game 9 years ago, good game in 2022.


This game is our favorite horror mobile game and it’s also very nostalgic to us. We were wondering if we could somehow find the audio of the piano in the title screen because it’s so nostalgic to us and I’d love to listen to it on loop.


We like the hanging tree the one that has hang thingy.


Wish the creator would make a remake with the more powerful hardware and software available now! Even an update with new features on Slender Rising and the 2nd one would be so cool! This game is still fun and well-made!


This game is great. It give us a spook every time we play it!!


This is actually more smooth of a game than The Arrival is on the Xbox 360. It also has more actual content, too. We can’t tell if it has more or the same amount of content than we thought it would have. It has four maps. It has two gamemodes. It has four different ambiences to choose for whichever map you chose. So, basically you have dozens of maps, in terms of variety of gameplay. Not only that, but you can also change the type of light; you can choose a normal flashlight, a limited battery light, a lantern, or no flashlight. The only thing we want is another slender rising. Slender rising three. If it happens, we hope there would be a carnival map, a swamp map, a suburb, and a warehouse.


We suggest yu you dont,download this p first. They are NOT KIDDING ABOUT IT!!! Scared the bejesus out of us! Fantastic ap. Aaa Gig we are it a,try.


This game is one of our favorite games. Slenderman gets really mad when you find 4 signs. We like the different maps. Its a very cool game.


Whenever we play the game we collect a sign and the game stops then continues and we look behind us and he’s there so now we know when to run!


This games is the best its worth buying it and they should do a multiplayer game too lesta how much can we get the papers xD.


Update – got your response. Its working now, no worries. Thank you! The moment we start a level, the game crashes entirely. We’ve tried restarting the app, and even our phone several times. We paid money for this app. We expect it to work.


What we really like about slendersaurus rex is that he never leaves you alone. But you should make it a multiplayer thing where a group goes camping and they have to make it back to civilization and survive the slendersaurus Rex. And a campaign and every time you pass a level, it gets harder and harder to get out of slendersaurus trap. And at the end you have a job to kill ALL of the creepy pastas including Jason, slendersaurus, Freddy cougar, bendy from bendy And the ink machine and five nights at Freddys Animatronics. Im not complaining Im suggesting that you at least add a multiplayer and a campaign. Over all the game is amazing and addicting. Oh and also, add a feature to have your pick of another creepy pasta so slender isnt alone.


Sooooooo much fun to play tons of content to keep you busy you must get no adds or anything just pure genius get it now.


This game is the best! The creators really understand how to create and manipulate fear. While we do get annoyed by Slender’s frequent teleportation, it does add another element of surprise to the game. We played the free version, became obsessed, and had to download the full version. The full version offers additional settings, including the ability to play during a thunderstorm and set the game level to "Insanity" (pretty self-explanatory… It’s insane). If you want to be scared out of your mind in a non-gruesome yet completely terrifying way, then this is the game for you.


Its a nice game we played the free version but then we thought that maybe the paid version will support iPhone X so we got the paid version but we were wrong please make the game screen support iPhone X thank you.


Used to have this game on our old account on our iPhone 5s. So we decided to come back and rebuy it to see if we can get the nostalgia of once playing this game. Its still a great game dont get us wrong. Its just the screen size was never updated to fit the new iPhone 12 mini (and Im guessing all iPhone 10 and up) so Im forced to play like we were on the iPhone 5s. Its not a bad purchase though, just wish this was fixed and its highly unlikely it will be (last update 5 years ago). 3 stars.


This game is not that scary. It is a guy with no face after you. There is no action like most horror games . We wasted our money.


Exits out of game and wont start, iPhone XR paid for nothing.


Wouldn’t even start up and when it did one time it was super glitchy and immediately shut off so we deleted and redone loaded and was the same case we want our money back for a ripoff game like this want our money back.


This game is amazing!!! It scared the pee out of us! Hint.. Never go near the hang tree! Iv only survived once.


This game is so much fun, while being addicting and probably one of the creepiest and scariest games we have played on IOS! We hate going around those corners though! XD.


Great game, nice sound, and overall made us crap our pants.


This game is just like slender for the PC. (Except you’re collecting signs, not pages, but who cares.) Basically, if you want a slender game that you can take with you, this one is for you.


We love this game because it only needs iOS 6 and we have the old iPod so we can only play those games.


This was better than the PC mixed with other horror games.


This is quite a thriller! It has many maps in many modes, and it is more scary than five nights at freddys! Some people like that more, including us, but if you want a good scare this is the one to buy. Even the free version is good!


The first slenderman is garbage compared to this game. Well done we must say.


This is hands-down the best Slender game on the entire App Store (trust us, we’ve played quite a few). The gameplay is exciting and kept us on the edge of our seat, and the bugless optimization makes it smooth on a HUGE range of devices! Having followed this game since 1.0, we can assure it’s expertly refined and absolutely worth the purchase!


Coming from someone who is an avid horror fan. This made us jump a few times. 5 stars!!!


This game is phenomenal. It’s is without a doubt one of, if not the, best horror games on the App Store and the second one is just as good but we think this one is just a bit better. We highly recommend getting this. Great gameplay, the best graphics we’ve seen on an iphone game, and terrifying sound effects & music.


This game is a definite thriller! Personally, we can be quite a picky reviewer especially when we are referring to slenderman related games considering they can carry a generic theme (at least a good proportion of them) but this game gave us an exception. The visuals are beautiful and dark, giving you multiple options for game play. Also, this game isn’t cheaply executed at all unlike many of the other games with this theme. It’s definitely worth the download if you are looking for a great horror game with the urban myth of slenderman.


As we went through the misty fog two things went through our mind was we crazy,or was we dreaming we knew we wasn’t dreaming so we pinched myself just to make sure. We saw a tree in the distance and a piece of paper tapped on the tree we quickly ran to the tree we grabbed the paper off the tree quickly and saw on it run towards the old Cabin we saw the old cabin it looked about a mile a way so we decided to bolt towards the cabin. We finally reached the cabin and walked inside it looked very old the lights looked as if they were about to shut off they did we searched around more inside the cabin and saw a peace of paper it said can’t escape we quickly turned around and notice there was a long slender man standing right behind us he had no face that’s what terrified us most we said no this can’t be we heard about him in the creepy pasta stories in school but never thought he was real after that day nobody knows what else happened to him it was all recorded never to be Hurd by the world that’s what inspired us to download this game we’re playing now.


Well conceived and executed game. The first time we ran into the Slenderman we nearly threw our iPad!


We did not know the legend/myth of Slenderman but was looking 4 a good horror theme game. Not disappointing!! Hell, we wish I’d have come up with this! The 2nd 1 is just as good & we’re hoping 4 a 3rd. Other reviewers r correct, this is the ONLY well crafted not cheap Slenderman game. We love the dark atmosphere, sound, it’s crazy maze like set up, & so dark, creepy, & spooky! Love it & want MORE! If u get a horror game, trust no1 but THIS developer. One price. No ads. Pretty much bug free. Smash Hit is like that also; perfect gam execution.


If you want a game that will send chills to your bones then we would highly recommend that you download this epic game. The different backgrounds and stages, the eerie music and sounds including various screams and crying, children laughing. Oh man it’s almost overwhelming at first. This game will scare the living hell out of you and we know we are not the only person who thinks this. Just buy it. You won’t regret it.


It’s awesome but you should add a recording feature on it so people could record themselves playing the game.


This isn’t really scary but it is so fun.
