Overall Five Nights at Freddy’s is a joy to play, easy to pick up, full of tension and yes it will have you jumping out of your skin, not just at a jumpscare, but at the severe frustration of nearly making it through, but I promise you, it will keep you coming back for more.

Overview
Welcome to your new summer job at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where kids and parents alike come for entertainment and food as far as the eye can see! The main attraction is Freddy Fazbear, of course; and his two friends. They are animatronic robots, programmed to please the crowds! The robots' behavior has become somewhat unpredictable at night however, and it was much cheaper to hire you as a security guard than to find a repairman. From your small office you must watch the security cameras carefully. You have a very limited amount of electricity that you're allowed to use per night (corporate budget cuts, you know). That means when you run out of power for the night- no more security doors and no more lights! If something isn't right- namely if Freddybear or his friends aren't in their proper places, you must find them on the monitors and protect yourself if needed! Can you survive five nights at Freddy's?

As flawed as its gameplay may be, this game will be talked about for years to come, and anyone who can stomach it should try it, if only to join in the discussion.
Fans taking a break from the Resident Evils, Silent Hills, and Dead Spaces of the world will find Five Nights at Freddy's refreshing in its simplicity, yet also challenging to survive unarmed through some eerie evenings.
Simple premise with lots of jump scares. Five Nights at Freddy's may be a one-trick pony, but that trick is quite the treat.
