Five Nights at Freddy's (video game): Difference between revisions

{{work}}

''Five Nights at Freddy's'' is a horror game with a simple premise on paper: you are Mike Schmidt, the newly employed watchman over at [[Suck E. Cheese's|Freddy Fazbear's Pizza]], and are tasked with surveying the restaurant after hours via security camera to make sure no harm whatsoever falls upon the animatronic characters who perform for the visiting children during the day. Sounds easy, right?

 

As you can likely tell by now, ''Five Nights at Freddy's'' is no mere horror game, it's also a resource management-based strategy game. If you wish to survive the night, you need to make sure that 1: No animatronics get into your office and murder you, and 2: you conserve power as best as you can from 12:00 to 6:00. Each animatronic (Chica, Bonnie, Foxy, and the titular [[Big Bad|Freddy Fazbear]] himself) has their own pattern of movements and triggers, which is important for you to observe so you can make sure that you don't end up with an animatronic screaming in your face. While the game seems like it gets its horror factor from jump scares, the true scariness comes from how frantic and paranoid you get trying to keep tabs on all the animatronics and managing your power, if anything the inevitable jump scare can almost be considered a relief.
