replayability

The game offers a significant amount of replayability, primarily due to its multiple endings, unlockable difficulties, and numerous achievements. While many players find the experience engaging and fun, some express frustration over the game's length and the challenge of revisiting previous content. Overall, it is considered worth the price for those who enjoy exploring different outcomes and secrets.
- “Tons of replay value due to multiple possible endings.”
- “Game is highly replayable with cool secrets and tons of customization options after you beat the game for the first time.”
- “With the multiple endings and secrets sprinkled throughout the game, as well as easter eggs fans are sure to love, this game offers a bit of replayability!”
- “Not gonna lie, the game is decent; there just isn't that much replayability mainly because you can't go back to previous nights to collect everything. I think the price is a bit too high for how short the game is because I beat it in like an hour and 20 minutes. I think it should've been sold for like $15, but for a Five Nights at Freddy's game, it's decent. I like all the easter eggs and stuff; I just wish it was a bit longer.”
- “I'd say $20 is a bit much as this game isn't very long, but there are a bunch of different endings you can get, so there is a lot of replayability.”
- “I understand that they are going for replayability, just if you have everything and just forgot to go to the voucher machine another time; it gets kinda frustrating.”

The game's stability has received mixed feedback, with many players reporting various glitches and bugs, ranging from minor annoyances to significant issues like softlocks.

- “I would also like to mention that it's generally bug free, though in rare cases I've experienced the yellow bunny seemingly teleport from one door to another because the room it was going into was unloaded.”
- “A disappointing, buggy mess that is not worth the $20.”
- “This game is buggy, the hiding system is completely dissatisfying, as well as the chase sequences in the game.”
- “Frustratingly cryptic objectives, glitches ranging from annoying to unplayable to softlocking, and a just out of reach sense of enjoyment.”

The humor in the game is widely appreciated, with many players finding the characters, particularly the funny rabbit, to be entertaining and memorable.

However, some players noted that the humor can be overshadowed by the game's darker themes, creating a unique but sometimes jarring contrast.
- “On top of that, it had a nice amount of jokes, alongside some fairly funny sarcasm.”
- “I loved how when you beat it, there's a door and if you open it with the key you go back to the torture room (where you found your dad) and you watch Markiplier default dance in front of you as the devs sit in a chair laughing.”
- “Absolutely incredible game! 30/10, FNAF game expectations went above and beyond, insanely funny, beautiful animation, crazy sound design. I just love this game to death way more than I even expected.”
- “One thing that I feel is a negative is that I get screwed over by Chica so many times it's not funny.”

Players generally find the grinding in the game to be excessively tedious, often requiring significant time investment to achieve goals or complete tasks, which can detract from the overall enjoyment. While some appreciate the challenge and the passion behind the game, many express frustration with repetitive tasks, unclear objectives, and the lack of save points, leading to a mixed reception regarding the grinding experience. Overall, the grind is seen as a major hurdle that can overshadow the fun aspects of the game.
- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “Don’t spend 20 dollars on this; it’s an absolute snooze fest of a game. The AI for enemies is extremely dumb, the tasks are long and tedious, and there is absolutely nothing scary in this horror game. I’m a FNAF fan but I’m extremely disappointed; I would refund if I could.”
- “I love this game, but I am never touching it again after these 34 hours of grinding for achievements. 20 of those hours were spent getting to Night 5 and dying by Spring Bonnie on nightmare mode.”
- “So in order to get all the achievements, you have to do the same thing multiple times across multiple difficulties, which is tedious and boring.”

- “Oswald and his father are some of the most interesting characters in the FNAF series, with a good amount of character development for such a short game.”
- “The story felt repetitive and lacked depth, with predictable scares and flat character development.”

Overall, the game's optimization has improved significantly following a recent update, addressing many previous bugs and enhancing the overall experience.

- “Since the update came out, the performance of the game is much better now. Many of the bugs and bad experiences I had while playing are now significantly improved.”
- “The jump scares and animations look great, even though the game has some intense performance issues that may be related to using a controller, according to the patch notes.”
- “The recent update has greatly enhanced the game's performance, making my overall experience much more enjoyable.”
- “Unfortunately, the game has pretty intense performance issues (which may or may not be linked to using a controller based on patch notes?), but jump scares and animations still look great.”
- “The optimization is lacking, leading to frequent frame drops and stuttering during gameplay, which detracts from the overall experience.”
- “Despite the game's potential, the poor optimization results in long loading times and crashes that make it frustrating to play.”
monetization
4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
The monetization of the game is criticized as being unworthy of its $20 price tag, with players feeling it offers less value compared to other titles in the genre. Many consider it a cash grab, citing slow gameplay, bugs, and a lack of fluidity as reasons for their disappointment. Overall, reviewers suggest that the game fails to justify its cost and recommend exploring better alternatives.
- “For $20 it is not worth it at all, you get more out of Help Wanted 2 which is like $15 more or you get the originals for the same price and you get way more out of it. This game is too slow and boring, the gameplay isn't fluid and is just honestly a cheap cash grab. Mega Cat need to up their game if they want to be the official devs for the Fazbear Frights books because this is not it, chief. Oh also, so buggy, literally get hardlocked on night 5 and you can't progress further at all.”
- “When I first got this game I thought it was gonna be a $30 cash grab for a pixelated game, but damn.”
- “This game feels like a cheap cash grab with its lack of content and poor gameplay mechanics.”
