Five Nights at Freddy's

Five Nights at Freddy's

It is a indie horror game created by Scott Cawthon, after his first few games failed because of critics saying that the characters look to much like dolls, well instead of giving up he took that and used that to create the ultimate horror game of 2014. I  love the game, but not because of its gameplay, but because of its mystery, the developer put alot of details, however there tricky to find. 

Personally i do not think this game sends a bad message, its story is based on mystery, yes its story can be a bit gore, but there is no vulgar, or anything negative. however its very scary so i recommend to be at least 13 to play. It was released on August 18 on steam (which is a gaming application for PC), and then on the 25 of August  it was released on desura( similar to team, but you download the game from a site). It is only 1 player, making it even more scary, it has very good ratings, and it is 5.49$ on steam. The game is based around in the early 90s, you re a security guard making sure that nothing goes wrong, while making sure to not be killed, by the raging animatronics.

You play as Mike Smitchd, he is a security guard who works at Freddy Fazbears pizza. Your job is to monitor the cameras to view the animatronics, and shut the doors so they don't appear in your office, if they do its game over however you only have a certain amount of power. The community loves the game and really like the, and for good reason, it testes you reaction skills as well as strategic skills to survive while having very hidden secrets forcing the player to dig deeper into the story to unravel the the origin's of the game. a demo was released on indie.db to try out completely free. The trailer down below was released on 14 June 2014 on Scott Official YouTube channel. a sequel for the game was released on November 11 2010, and a 3rd game in the series is still in development. I recommend this game for any Horror fan, and any fan of unraveling secrets. The game mechanics are fun too, but the eerie music and darkness really make it feel like a horror game. To me the scariest thing is the music, the music is perfect to get you scared along whith sound effects of creepy laughs which usally make me jump out of my seats and the fact that i cant run or get away is really scary to me as well.  To me its gameplay is also great, peaple say that it sometimes can be glitchy but to me thats the way it was meant beacause the equipement is old which also helps explain the setting to me as well.

  1. Good blog post! I've never heard of this video game before, but I'll take your word as it being a good game to play. Your opinion was throughout the whole post and I appreciate that. Really cool how you added a video at the end too. Just a tip: maybe you could explain more about the different characters and web sites you've talked about for people like me who know nothing about video games? Overall, it was a good post, keep up the good work!

  2. Wow! such a great blog post. I've had some personal experience with this game and I can honestly say that your blog has made me want to explore it deeper. The creator seems like he has a great imagination. I can tell from your post that you really enjoy this game and want to share it with the world.. But may I suggest you describe certain aspects of the game? I know you went over the gameplay but you didn’t describe any of the characters or their backstory. But besides that, I really enjoyed your blog and I can’t wait to see what you blog about next!

  3. This blog is very nice and interesting. Personally I do not like this genre of game but it sounds like it would be very exciting to play. I could see why this game is attracting so much attention among the gaming community. Also who knows, maybe horror and mystery could be my new thing!
