Players find the mechanics engaging and more challenging than the first installment, although some express frustration with a new character's poorly designed mechanic that detracts from the overall experience.
“It combines psychological horror, tense gameplay, and a deeply immersive atmosphere to create a game that is both terrifying and thrilling.”
“I think the mechanics are quite fun to work with, and I generally found this to be quite a bit more challenging than the first game, which was honestly a treat for me despite playing most of the game on hard mode, along with no upgrades (because I like torture).”
“I also have an issue with the new character that appears on night 5, since I think their mechanic is poorly thought out and makes the gameplay more annoying than it needs to be.”
“I would suggest a rework to the mechanic to be able to actually deter them from breaking a camera, since I think it would be more fun that way.”
“Five Nights at Roner's 2 takes the core survival-horror mechanics and amplifies them.”
