The Five Nights at Freddy's series of mobile games has gained popularity thanks to the interesting gameplay and the atmosphere of horror. The horror makes its way to the bones ... The most interesting thing is that fear is pumped up gradually. Very few games of this genre boast the same quality. During the game, blood literally freezes in my veins. The developers did their best. There have been no such high-quality mobile toys for a long time.
Many are interested in the history of Freddy Fazber's pizzeria. Of course, it’s always interesting to know the eerie details. And here, the developers surpassed themselves. History is replete with terrible facts, murders, mysticism and incomprehensible phenomena. The plot is so famously twisted that you do not always understand what is at stake at the moment. However, for now, let's turn to the game itself.
A little bit about the game
The bottom line is that the player needs to hold out for five nights in a pizzeria as a security guard. All would be fine, but at night evil animatronics crawl in the building, who are eager to kill the main character. You can watch them only with the help of cameras. If the hero coped with his task, then at the end of the game he is given a check and offered to roll on all four sides. However, not many can withstand five nights.
Animatronics are so hostile towards people because they perceive them as an exoskeleton. In accordance with their machine thinking, dolls decide that the naked exoskeleton has nothing to crawl around the room, and with all their might try to stuff it into a suit (shell). This is where man ends. Because the inside of the shell is full of sharp-cutting objects. There is no point fighting animatronics - they are much stronger. Yes, and such an opportunity is not provided for gameplay. The player can only run away in a panic from bloodthirsty dolls or simply prevent them from approaching, hiding in a special room. Few games can cause a person to feel hopeless horror. "5 Nights with Freddy" refers to just such.
The main opponent of the player is an animatronic named Freddy (he is a bear). He is trying to kill the protagonist by all means available to him. To avoid this sad fate, you need to competently move around the building, avoiding the paws of animatronics. Now let's see how scary the story of Freddy Fazber's pizzeria is.
Start
According to the official chronicle, initially Freddy's pizzeria had a completely different name. Back in 1987, the institution was called "Fredber and Friends" and was a family restaurant (such as "McDonald's"). At that time, nothing remarkable happened. The whole horror began in the first part of Five Nights at Freddy's, when an institution called the Freddy Fazber Pizzeria was opened on the site of the restaurant.
This is where the horror begins. A certain person who enlightens the new security guard over the telephone about the unseemly behavior of local animatronics mentions the fact that five children were lost in the walls of a pizzeria. According to him, the children were killed, and their bodies shoved on animatronics. The most interesting thing is that in the further development of the plot it becomes clear that this same telephone “well-wisher” killed the children. He himself will die a terrible death. He tried on an animatronic costume and was crushed by a metal frame.
Soon, visitors to the pizzeria began to complain that some offensive liquid was flowing from the animatronics. As we understand it, all this time the corpses of children decomposed in them. The administration decided to close the pizzeria for a long 27 years.
Bite 87
In the same 1987, an animatronic named Foxy played the birthday of one of the youngest visitors. The boy’s friends shoved the birthday man’s head into Foxy’s jaw, which he did not hesitate to use and bit off a poor part of the frontal lobe of the brain. All this happened after the animatronics got an unpleasant odor. Perhaps it was this incident that caused the Freddy Fazber pizzeria to close.
Be that as it may, Bite 87 played a positive role. Now the children were protected from evil, fetid dolls. However, this is not the end of the story. The history of Freddy's pizzeria will continue in almost 30 years.
27 years later
After almost 30 years, Freddy Fazber's pizzeria reopens. And again terrible things begin to happen in her. Guard Schmidt is now struggling with the arbitrariness of animatronics in tightened mode. However, now the dolls are controlled by the spirits of the murdered children. And they only want blood.
Apparently, Schmidt is the guy who called the previous security guard on the phone, since no calls were received on his shift. Accordingly, he is the killer of unfortunate children. Naturally, their spirits do not calm down until they release Schmidt's guts. Not a very funny ending. But the scary stories about Freddy's pizzeria do not end there. It is worth noting that after the death of the culprit, the pizzeria burns down due to a wiring closure. A good way to end the game.
Bitten
Around the same time, when Schmidt is struggling with animatronics, a boy who has lost a piece of his brain is trying to fight off dolls at home. True, how the animatronics were able to leave the pizzeria and enter his house is not clear. The guy is armed with just a flashlight. However, he successfully survives this nightmare. Unless, of course, the player knows what to do.
It is clear that after all the horrors experienced, the guy becomes unbalanced (to put it mildly). It is logical to assume that now his place in the house for the crazy. However, this does not happen. It seems that the history of Freddy's pizzeria is as if nothing to do with. But upon closer inspection, this story is an important complement to the plot.
Mini games
In addition to the main plot, Five Nights at Freddy's has side mini-games. Their graphics are largely reminiscent of the Atari or Nintendo classics. They are not part of the plot and are a regular bonus. However, they schematically talk about what happened to the poor kids and much more. Most users miss such uninteresting moments. Moreover, the history of Freddy Fazber's pizzeria already has a bunch of interesting points.
Mini-games help the user to better understand the essence and plot of the game. However, they do not carry practical value in themselves. There are no bonuses, nor any other "tasty buns". That is why many people prefer to skip this uninteresting stage.
Conclusion
All parts of this game are made very high quality. For a long time there were no such exciting platformers. The atmosphere of piercing horror - this is the calling card of “5 nights with Freddy”. The history of the pizzeria is full of terrible stories, corpses, murders, mystical events. The plot will not leave anyone indifferent. Even the most demanding fans of "horror" will find in this game a lot of interesting things for themselves. Let's hope that soon the game will be released on PC. It would be very interesting to look at the full version. Is it possible that the PC version is better mobile? Unlikely.
