### 1/5 — Worst thing ever

*2026-05-28, version 5.1*

I was feeling nostalgic so I downloaded this. An ad after picking up each tape are we fr? Also you don’t see slender until or get five or six tapes and even then you just kind of die with an ad that plays before the death animation. Literal slop.

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2026-03-14, version 5.1*

I love this game just like original version 
on pc but on mobile

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-12-28, version 5.1*

So Slenderman, his wife, Angeline, and his daughter Slendrina are hard to survive, but I’d say Slenderman is the hardest because like sometimes he has the ugly tail hands and he could get you and also you could download this app. It’s completely free.

### 4/5 — Please read

*2025-11-05, version 5.1*

This game is wonderful but in the game you go way to slow

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-08-10, version 5.1*

Too many ads as soon as I played 1/5 could’ve been better.

### 2/5 — Impossibile vincere

*2025-06-11, version 5.1*

Il gioco è anche bello ma il problema è che è impossibile scappare dallo slenderman e in ogni caso ti prende,io non sono mai riuscit a prendere più di 5 cassette per questo motivo

### 2/5 — This game is weird

*2025-05-25, version 5.1*

What is the stomping soundwhy does he only move when your not looking at him why is the startup sound so weird?

### 2/5 — I don't really know

*2025-04-13, version 5.1*

I'm a really big fan of horror games even know I'm a kid it's scary but not scary at the same time in my opinion but I am genuinely scared to play this game even though there are way scarier games wo not recommend to play this game there are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy scarier

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2025-03-26, version 5.1*

Hello love the game but I would really like you to make a remake of this one but except with pages  and no ingame content that would be great

### 3/5 — むり

*2025-02-21, version 5.1*

むーりー！走れない！
雰囲気◎なのに操作方法わかんなくてテープ一個取って詰んじゃった！
