    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 is the final chapter in the Five Nights at Freddy's series, together with being the last game, it's also the scariest game in the series as well.
    The game is COMPLETELY different in the gameplay than all of the previous games, you don't have a security camera anymore, all you have to defend yourself is a flashlight, to scare the animatronics away.
    The gameplay    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 is the final chapter in the Five Nights at Freddy's series, together with being the last game, it's also the scariest game in the series as well.
    The game is COMPLETELY different in the gameplay than all of the previous games, you don't have a security camera anymore, all you have to defend yourself is a flashlight, to scare the animatronics away.
    The gameplay is made in such a way, that you need to focus on the audio cues, making you to concentrate on the game carefully, making you feel like you're a part of it all.
    The animations in this game are amazing, everything is now completely fluid, and doesn't feel like they're "laggy" at all.
    The graphics and everything are amazing too, it looks like Scott Cawthon put all of his effort into this game.
    Now, I'll explain why it is so scary, it's pretty simple. You're a kid, having to defend yourself against the Nightmare Animatronics, in order to do so, you need to move next to the doors, and listen carefully if there are breathing sounds, if there are breathing sounds, you need to shut down the door, and wait 'till you hear footsteps. But you never know if you're safe. If you succesfully defended yourself, or not. The next time you flash the light, might be the time of your death. And during the time you have to shut down the door. If you succesfully defend yourself, you still cannot think calmly. You're still worried an animatronic can come from the door, or the bed, or even the closet. You have to constatly defend yourself, while being scared of the animatronics.
    The game is also very good at causing surprise attacks. Things like Foxy's "Failed Jumpscare" is something which makes the game feel a lot more lively, and great. There are also a few nights where you suddenly have to change your strategy, due to something new coming up, making you have a lot of more fright due to the fact of not knowing what to do, due to the extremely creepy looks of the animatronics.
    The game also has some small things which made the first game very good, like random, creepy sounds, like Freddy's laugh, dogs barking, and such.
    The game also reveals another part of the FNaF story, which is quite sad.

    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 is an amazing horror game, which brings together the scariest parts of all the games, turning it into a game with brand new gameplay, creepy animatronics, and everything you need in a good horror game.
    I recommend Five Nights at Freddy's 4 greatly, if you did not like the previous games, I would recommend you to pick this one up, as this one will very likely scare the heck outta you.    … Expand

    I hate the FNAF franchise but holy **** I was **** scared ****less playing this with my friends. There are bugs but they will get fixed soon but this is probably the only one you actually care about and you're not a 9 year old with his 3rd gen iPod touch.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although admittedly the Five Nights at Freddy's series has got a reputation for being extremely repetitive, this game mixes up the formula more than any other incarnation of the franchise.

    You take the role of an unnamed child in their house, facing PTSD induced nightmares after a traumatic event at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza some time prior. You must use only a torch to fight them off, by flashing the light down hallways. If they are too close, close enough that you can hear them breathing, you must hold the door shut until you hear them leave.

    In this game, there is a total of 5 main nights and a bonus sixth night alongside various challenge modes and mini games. Beating the main campaign will unlock the extras menu, where you can do things such as looking at the character models, jumpscares and playing the mini games at any given time.

    Overall, this game has got to be one of my favourite horror games, there's plenty to do and a perfect challenge factor, allowing it to be hard enough to make it difficult at times, even for expert players, but also be welcoming to new players, with various tips included in the game and the lack of a steep learning curve.

    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 is an incredibly well crafted game, and one well worth checking out.    … Expand

    For all those who think Five Nights At Freddy's is a horror game, it's not. Really, jump-scares are bland and everything is very repetitive. Then why am I giving it a very high score?

The reason is because Five Nights At Freddy's is not a horror game, it is a beautiful, deep and mysterious storybook, at a reasonable price. From the first game to now, the lore hidden behind every detail proofs game developer Scott Cawthon a mastermind at story-telling. I've heard that there is a movie version (adapted by Warner Bros, directed by Gil Kenan) coming up, and I think that this movie would finally break through the cycle of horrible game-to-movie cliche.

    I hate the fact that the critics couldn't seem to grasp the detail of what Five Nights At Freddy's really is, one critic even expressed that the mini-games between each nights are unnecessary. Seriously, I think that these critics are only those people who play games for a living and they don't bother to check out the lore in games.

    Overall, it is a pleasure to have gone through the wonderful journey of the FNAF franchise universe. However, I do think that the genre of this game should be interactive movie instead of point and click.    … Expand

    Five Nights at Freddy´s 4 does something different than its other titles. You´re in a room and have to try and avoid getting jumpscared by animatronics. And for the first time in the series you can move to different parts of the scene. And like the previous games its all about strategy but not the same kind as before.

It has enchanted the internet with theories about it's cleverly and delightfully vague story for almost a year now, and as such should be praised for it. Its simple design and game mechanics are manageable to a degree, and makes it easy (supposedly) to play. The jumpscares in previous installments got stale after the first few times and you would grow immune to them quickly. But not here. The jumpscares got me every single time, and that's because this game did not pull any punches. It revealed new and terrifying characters slowly, and once you think you've got the regular four beaten, it throws a curve ball at you with another more terrifying menace. While the game may have been stripped of the familiar camera system, I applaud its usage of subtle sound cues (They were hard to hear at first, but it's fixed now). It forces you to rely on your ears rather than your eyes, and I love that concept when used in games. The story, while purposely vague and confusing, is the best part to me. That being said, if you weren't a fan of FNAF before, odds are you won't be now unless you enjoy the new system. But I would honestly say, it's a solid entry. It's not FNAF 1, and it's better than 2 and 3. And the story will at least make you think, and wonder in amazement as to how the hell any of it makes sense. If you're not in it for the gameplay, I think you'll be satisfied with the story.… Expand

If not, you should still play it. As a standalone game, this could be called a childhood terror simulator. We all remember those times we held our breath while checking under the bed for monsters... well, this is that in video game form, without the benefit of "it was just your imagination." It's basically the childlike mind on steroids, dumped on a computer screen. Chances are, after playing it, this game will pop into your head uninvited whenever you crack open a closet door or shine a flashlight down a dark hallway.

    If you're looking for some kind of epic, multilayered, three-act saga with advanced controls, sidequests and achievements galore, you came to the wrong place. All you need to control is a flashlight, and your only achievement is escaping this deathtrap (a child's bedroom) with your life.

    My usual complaint with the FNAF approach to jumpscares still stands... too over-the-top to for their own good... but I give this one more of a pass because the overly nightmarish aspect fits fine from a child's point of view.    … Expand

    So there is Five Night's at Freddy's 4. The last episode of the franchise that promised to be the most frightening one yet. It truly did what it has promised and I won't lie. I found myself scared at my limit during every night. This is my resumed thoughts about every aspect of the game, both for the mobile and PC versions.

    As usual, FNAF series has a deep personality of not telling you    So there is Five Night's at Freddy's 4. The last episode of the franchise that promised to be the most frightening one yet. It truly did what it has promised and I won't lie. I found myself scared at my limit during every night. This is my resumed thoughts about every aspect of the game, both for the mobile and PC versions.

    As usual, FNAF series has a deep personality of not telling you anything about what's happening and most of the times this will continue until you completely finish the game. This time is not different. From what we know since we start the game, is that the fourth chapter of the game is, in fact, the very first one, telling us everything that has happened before all the confusion in the Freddy Fazbear Restaurant in Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (that actually takes place before FNAF 1).

    The game will tell you the story of a little child and how he almost died on the restaurant after being bite by the animatronic, that a few years later, would be worldwide recognized as the iconic date of the Bite of 87, that has ruined all the image of the restaurant as a whole. The game explains this very well through mini-games after every night survived. At the end, you are left without many questions remaining, but with the feel that it could have been better. The story is a little bit precipitated in their major details, and this compromises the game as a whole.

    Five Nights at Freddy's: The Last Chapter is an attempt to remove basically all the previous mechanics that we were used to see in the previous games to make something bigger and scarier to the player. They try to call it the fear of the unknown. The surprised between every monster appearance is crucial to create the horror feeling that makes everyone freeze in their chairs, without knowing what will happen next.

    This time, ears will be more used than your eyes. You can't truly know where the monsters are because there is no camera checking, but this doesn't mean that you can't know if they are or not nearby you. Of course that this will not matter after some time, but this still is a very important feature (that is indeed very well used and explored by Scott Cawthon) to survive every hour. The biggest problem about this hearing feature used in the game is that this is accidentally most used in the game to provoke jump scares, and not truly an atmosphere to keep the player deep into the game, immersed while he/she is playing it.

    In resume: they are more dangerous, scarier and furious than never before, but the game tries something that has a good potential, but end up by been a jump scare festival (even more than it's predecessors).    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is different from the other chapters, but that doesn't mean it's bad. Switching from video to audio is a smart decision from Scott, because looking at the cameras for three past parts was getting a bit repetitive. When now the audio has a key role in the game, there's no way you will be able to play it without headphones, or at least speakers (I would recommend headphones). The game itself is a remaster of the first part, with two doors on the left and right side of the house, oh yeah I forgot, If someone haven't figured out by now, we're in a house now and playing as a child (reminds of Among the sleep). In the gameplay you can actually move but only to the doors and back, at the door it's like playing Russian roulette where you look at the abyss of the hallway like in a muzzle of a revolver and listen for breathing sounds, in the end you flash in the hallway and if someone is stepping back in to the shadow... Congrats, you listened carefully and avoided the bullet, if not.. BAM.

    The game itself has a somewhat a Boogeyman style now because you try to avoid not normal or broken animatronics but Nightmares, Nightmarish, Twisted versions of Freddy Fazzbear and his little minions with the rest of the crew, and there's also a few new ones in the team as well.

    So if you've played the previous three parts and bored of the whole pizzeria and cameras theme, this last part refreshes the franchise anew.    … Expand

    FNAF 4 breaks the mold, this time you actually have to move around the room to see whats going on and to protect yourself. The animatronics are creepy as hell in this game and the grunts and noises they make are really disturbing. This game is actually scary but not as rewarding as the previous 3 games. Overall FNAF 4 feels fresh and new.

    Again i must admit masterful atmosphere and sound design, and the design of animatronics is frightening and shoking as it should be.

    Um jogo simples e bacana, qualidade sonora deixou uma imersão bem interessante te fazendo se assustar a qualquer momento com os jumpscares, eu particularmente gostei bastante dessa experiência e curti saber mais da história com ótimo mini games 2D.

The games atmosphere is outstanding, the gameplay is also amazing it mainly focuses on the audio and sound, you have to listen to the animatronic movements and it makes the game even more scary which is genius. The main complaint in Five Nights At Freddys is the jumpscares but in this game the issues is completely gone, the audio mechanic removes the annoying jumpscares instead it makes every jumpscare unexpected and terrifying which is genius. The story is also simple and creepy like every Five Night At Freddys game, the extra nights and extra modes such as Fun With Plushtrap a terrifying time with a plush is always a good time. Five Nights At Freddys 4 is a unique game with an awesome atmosphere and jumpscares that make you jump high and low, also great additional modes and A story that is simply shocking, this might very well be the best Five Nighs At Freddys game for the time being because it does everything right and it deserves more prays and more love.

    People who say this game is “not scary at all” are just hating on the franchise. I am damn sure those who gave it a zero rating haven’t even played the game.

This is my first foray into FNAF and I doubt I’ll finish it because of the feeling of dread playing the game induces in me.

    This is not as great as the first, and it does get a bit boring at the middle, but thanks to the amazing story, the amazingly strong jump scares and the frustrating settings and the fifth night, it makes it such an amazing game that I am glad to play.

    What I liked about this game was its incorporation of sound and careful listening. And the scare factor, compared to the previous titles, is turned up to eleven.

    Fnaf 4 is my favorite horror thriller game yes the game has shortcomings but it doesn't matter, I think the game will pass the fnaf security breach game (it's already a bad game but anyway) I recommend it Fnaf 4 en bayıldığım korku gerilim oyunu evet oyunun eksiklikleri var ama önemli değil bence oyun fnaf security breach oyununu geçer (zaten sb kötü oyun ama neyse) tavsiye ederim

    FNaF4 differs from the previous games and that’s good. I had a bit more fun with it but it’s still based on jump scares and that’s the least refined technique of scaring. [10/2015, p.73]

    FNAF takes a step back, and relies on sound to scare you. It still works, but now your biggest fear would be going deaf because of its loud scare jumps.
