The graphics, I admit, aren't worth worshipping (The result of a one-man developer), but the developer more than made up for that in quality. FNAF 3 is creepier than ever (after all, the game is based in a to-be horror attraction. Ironic, huh?), with new hallucinations that will scare the crud out of you. New strategies like distracting the animatronics with audio playbacks add a sense of challenge to the already creepy atmosphere. And best of all, the developer added animations like an animatronic (or a hallucination) sneaking around in front of your office, which I thought the two previous games desperately needed. This game is the kind of game that teaches corporate jerks blinded by money like EA what a good game looks like - I mean, one man made this entire game, and yet it's still more addicting than FIFA or even Battlefield 4, which was made by many people.

    It's a shame that this is the last game in the series. I would have LOVED to see a FNAF 4. Ah well. It's a good conclusion to the series, at least. RIP Five Nights at Freddy's.    … Expand

    The two prequels are always stressful and hard. This is actually easier and revealed alot of mysteries. The only problem is the fanbase, but that has nothing to do with the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Scott really succeeded with this game.

    We'll start off with the basic gist of it. The whole gameplay instead of being hectic in the later nights instead just really revolves around animatronic. Now there are other animtronics in the form of phantoms that instead of killing you outright just mess with your systems. Now trust me don't mistake that for being harmless, that CAN screw you over and WILL screw you over. However I find that adds to the tension/panic cause **** is just constantly hitting the fan while Springtrap is coming to hunt down your ass.

    The game mechanics don't center around thinking of something to do when you're about to get killed. They're about preventing you from getting into that situation in the first place by impeding his progress. You have three systems, cameras which should be self explanatory, ventilation which is the system the phantom animatronics usually shut down when they attack you, if it shuts down you start fainting and the screen starts blinking black which is a perfect chance for springtrap to get you, and at last you have the audio system, this is one of you main defense mechanisms where if you use it in a room that springtrap is near he'll go to the room. Your other defense mechanism is the ability to seal the vents, this is crucial because if you don't and he goes into one he can go through a MASSIVE shortcut.

    The story is still pretty baller. The events/story is still told through the atari era and make a return from FNAF 2. It answers the questions on who Springtrap is, who the murderer is, and even the fate of the lost souls of the children who were murdered.

    The tension and atmosphere are pretty great in my opinion (although some will disagree.) It's more tense than its predecessors in that instead of the animatronics just jerking off and wandering around this one just more or less ruthlessly hunts you down. It gets tense knowing that it just gets closer and closer. The atmosphere while kind of lacking the charm of its predecessors still is fairly creepy.

    In conclusion it's really the best FNAF experience you can get.    … Expand

    For starters you're only chased down by one real animatronic, he makes up for this by being FAR harder to see in the cameras and being much more aggressive overall. For the most part gameplay doesn't consist of figuring out what to do when they are about to kill you, it consists of you slowing down his progress, which requires you to actively watch the cameras, unlike the previous two installments.

    The story is as great as always. This game introduces multiple endings (although you will have to jump through a LOT of hoops in order to get to it.) Initially you won't find much difference between the good ending and the bad ending, my advice is search for a bigger meaning behind them ;).
    Overall I found it to be a very great and very fun experiencee.    … Expand

    Yet another fantastic game by a fantastic creator. Has so much more detail than the first 2 games. Whoever said this game series was a cash grab, is wrong. Scott spends so much time on these games, and he deserves more respect for that. Keep it up Scott!

    Scott did it again with an amazing third game. Although there is only one animatronic, it serves it purpose well. My review is extremely positive because the game terrified me.

    Far outstrips its predecessor , bringing a mechanical being forced you to see the cameras .

    A game that gives chills just remembering. It is as scary as the first game and has almost the same dynamics as the second game. It was the best game in this saga so far.

    I finished this game--NO, I over-finished it by completing even the nightmare mode, unraveling secrets, playing mini-games. That's how I'm engrossed in this game. The change in style and mechanics again are great. It is a full-on throttle experience if you want to feel the dread of FNAF 1 and 2 again

    A good game sometimes even starts to scare, only with each new night it becomes more difficult to play and it becomes not scary for you, it starts to annoy you, but the third part of fnaf is not bad

    Best game in the series, Springtrap's design is truly terrifying and the jumpscares are way more scarier than the 2nd game. Keep in mind that this game is not suitable for kids under 11 due to more violence and gore than the first 2 games.

    Defiantly the best of them all. To be honest this was the first Fnaf that scared the living **** out of me. The gameplay and the Background soundtrack are just beautiful to listen to. And having no Doors just makes it scarier. The only bad thing is how easy it is you can basically trap springtrap where ever you wan't

    A really solid game (not to spoil anything and to keep it short), but is can be not scary sometimes and it isn't as hard as the other games (through i would play this than fnaf 4 because that's really stressful).

Having only one real animatronic can be a pro and a con, but let me tell you, the first time I had to stare it in the face, it was extremely effective. Still can't get that picture of the bunny staring from the corner of the doorway out of my head. I'm glad Scott went with something a little different this time, and it's spooky enough when you first start and have no clue what you're supposed to be doing.… Expand

    3 gives us the perfect example of player vs AI. Stuck alone with only one thing to kill you this game forces you to lure him away as you play sounds, that one thing new, but there's a lot more here. New parts of the story are revealed here, very suspenseful and frightening.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Con este juego tengo sentimientos encontrados.
    Me encanto la idea de scott de hacer un 1vs1 de padre e hijo pero no fue muy bien ejecutado.
    Graficamente esta ok, se ve muy hermoso esta muy cuidado, te hace sentir nervioso y el diseño de Springtrap es una genialidad.
    Por parte de la jugabilidad me parece bien, tenemos para resetear camaras, ventilación, audio y los ductos.
    Los phantom son hermosos, BB, freddy, puppet, foxy todos son buenisimos no hay uno que se vea mal, todos asustan cuando los ves y en un descuido podrian hacer que llegue muy rápidamente william a la oficina.
    Sobre la historia es muy bien planteada, mostrando en minijuegos todo hasta ver las almas yendo a por su asesino y verlo morir de una manera horrible en el traje de SPRINGBONNIE para verlo regresar en este juego y en un futuro...

    It’s extremely good at scare jumps but the point is that scare jumps are an awfully primitive tool. [07/2015, p.54]

    The excellently revised camera system and eerie villain makes Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 one of the better scare-fests out there.
