About Slay the Slime
Slay the Slime is an incremental game where your mouse cursor is the sword and the slimes never stop coming. Rest the cursor over them and it attacks on its own, and every number on screen keeps climbing as your power grows.
Each stage offers upgrades as you go, and you piece together a build from them. Classes change how you fight: the Wizard leans on magic, the Archer sends out volleys of arrows, and the Necromancer raises the dead. Relics add more power, and bosses stand between you and the top rank in the adventurers' guild.
The art is bright, retro pixel work with rows of colorful slimes. The web version is a playtest build, and a session lasts about half an hour. You can play Slay the Slime online here with a mouse or trackpad.
How to Play Slay the Slime
- Press Play on the title screen. The language menu sits in the top-right corner.
- Move your cursor over slimes to attack them. Hovering is enough.
- Pick upgrades as they're offered during each stage to shape your build.
- Equip relics and try new classes as they become available.
- Defeat bosses to work your way up from rookie.
What to Expect in Slay the Slime
Slay the Slime is about stacking power. The upgrades you take in each stage decide how fast slimes fall, and classes and relics push that build in new directions. Some secret classes go further and change how the game plays.
Since it's a playtest, expect a focused slice of about half an hour with a relaxed pace. It's an easy incremental game to pick up, and you can play Slay the Slime free here with nothing to install.
Tips for Slay the Slime
- Pick upgrades that work together. A build that leans one way tends to beat a scattered one.
- Try every class you can. The Wizard, Archer and Necromancer each change how you clear slimes.
- Look for the secret classes. Some of them change the rules of the game completely.
- Use a mouse or trackpad, not a touchscreen. Attacks come from hovering, which needs a cursor.
- Give it about half an hour. That's long enough to see a build come together.

FAQ
Is Slay the Slime free?
Yes. Slay the Slime is free to play here in your browser with nothing to install. The web version is a playtest build, and its upgrades, relics and classes are all earned in play, so there's nothing to buy while you work through the slimes.
How do you play Slay the Slime?
Press Play, then move your cursor over the slimes and it attacks them on its own. Pick upgrades during each stage to build up your power, equip relics, and try new classes as they appear. Bosses show up on the way to the top of the guild.
What is the goal of Slay the Slime?

Can I play Slay the Slime on a Chromebook or phone?
Slay the Slime runs in a browser, so a Chromebook with a mouse or trackpad works well. Attacks come from hovering the cursor over slimes, which a touchscreen cannot do in the same way, so phones and tablets are a poor fit for this one.
Is Slay the Slime unblocked at school?
Slay the Slime needs only a browser tab, with nothing to download or install. Whether it opens on a school or work network is up to that network's filters, which we do not control. If it loads, it plays the same as it does anywhere else.
What classes are in Slay the Slime?
You can fight as a Wizard who uses magic, an Archer who sends out swarms of arrows, or a Necromancer who raises the dead. More classes and relics become available as you go, and a few secret classes change the gameplay in big ways.
Do you have to click in Slay the Slime?
No. In Slay the Slime, hovering is enough: move the cursor over slimes and the attacks happen on their own. That keeps your hand relaxed through longer stages, and it's the main reason a mouse or trackpad works better here than a touchscreen.
