    Insanely good. Game was kinda difficult but has the best gameplay out of the three. And also the scariest. There are mild violence and the jumpscares are too scary for kids below 11 to handle. Overall, amazing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The change in FNAF was really good, controling cameras and looking on doors was changed for listening to sounds.
    One of last scary games in this franchise.

    Best game on the series, it follows the same formula, but with several twists that make this a truly good game. Also the one that scared me more.

    Es un juego con un gran reto y con un gamplay desafiante y oscuro, lo recomiendo a cualquiera amante del terror y lo complicado ya que es un juego para jugar y fallar.

    FNaF 4 really is a frightening game. Not because of its jump scares but mainly because of the setting of the game. A child's bedroom is a very interesting place for a FNaF game. Despite this however, I feel that this game has the most repetitive gameplay in the series. You are no longer watching cameras but running around a room the whole night. It gets stale very quickly.

Another thing I don't particularly like is how loud the jump scares are. It gets annoying because you have to listen very closely and you most likely have your volume turned way up. Yeah it's frightening, but it sacrifices an enjoyable experience as a cost. I know it sounds like I really don't like this game but I do. It is very satisfying when you do beat the game and its extra modes. It's not a bad game but the way its designed needs some work. Expand

    This game is bad. all the nights are the same except they get slightly harder each time. i dont like the fact that you have to rely on sound to win, this just makes the game about listening to footsteps and breathing and if you arent able to hear the right thing you die. the only thing that is interesting about this game is the lore.

The franchise expanded a lot since that distant 2015 where FNaF 4 came out, in the previous game it is undoubtedly the worst game in the main Five Nights at Freddy's saga. A game that has a very radical change in gameplay compared to previous games, where we only had access to the cameras and look from one place to another by closing doors or lighting ducts and lighting a large corridor, which shows that the franchise Both in later games and before this one, it has a mechanic or an aspect of the gameplay that involves the lights or sounds of the environment to help the survival of the player (games such as FNaF World or Freddy in a Space are totally different and have a different gameplay each one to the main games). Lighting behind the bed, approaching the doors, lighting the corridors, opening and closing doors or cabinets is all you have to do, and besides that sound should be your greatest ally in play since it will be very useful to avoid to the animatronics present in the game, which makes you dependent on your reaction speed and your earphone capacity more than on your visibility, which in gameplay little or nothing is used. This added to the 8-bit minigames that explain one of the most important events in the history of the franchise, which does not exceed them or make them heavy, but they are very meh, although interesting and leave you with the curiosity of the history of this saga.



    The difficulty of the game is challenging and it is one of the most difficult of the saga to date, having the possibility of playing 8 nights each one more difficult than the previous one, and with some challenges that increase its replayability but without a custom night mode. That iconic in the franchise that since the last installment was not and I do not understand why they did not add it in this installment, and once you have passed the game you will not want to return to it unless it is to complete it if 100% but if already it is 100% completed, you will have no choice but not to return to it. The animatronic designs are somewhat exaggerated (excess of "fear"), this is because how his previous game did not provoke that fear so characteristic of the saga that in this game he wanted to return but now with much more teeth and red eyes Yes, they are scary and it generates that terrifying discomfort but it is very excessive and its Halloween edition in my opinion is improved a little but it also does not remove from my head that this excess of "terror" made the game not be taken in serious the atmosphere of himself. The extras contain many more things than in the previous game where there are some of the minigames with the Plushtrap animatronic, the challenges that I previously mentioned, the present animatronics of this installment and two demonstrations of how Nightmare Foxy and Nightmare Freadbear are created for At that time it fulfilled what FNaF 3 began with the extras, today it is somewhat empty to how it has been improved and later with the following games and fangames, that section being very forgettable. It goes without saying that FNaF 4 is not the best or the worst, it is an enjoyable game that requires a challenge that does not make your thumbs bleed, despite its shortcomings it is a game that I really like and is one of my favorites in this franchise.

    To start with the positives, i did like the mini games after each night, it felt i was actually being told a story rather than just some cryptic scene of implied child death and the ending to the mini games i thought was quite refreshing for the series because we had never actually seen one of these robots kill somebody, it's always just been told to us but i'm not going to give

    That is about it for the positives, as for everything else it's pretty mediocre or downright bad, the gameplay i feel is the worst in the series, this franchise has a history of having some pretty unfair challenges but this game takes it too far. listening for breathing is incredibly difficult thanks to the gargelled audio and while i did like the mini games this is the game that started the trend of Scott just adding a bunch of none-sense to his story for no other reason then to make it more confusing, the sound design this time around feels like it did back in fnaf 2, just random **** This game relies on the most basic tricks to scare the player. just silence, darkness and the anticipation of a jump-scare, this game is lazy (a common theme i notice throughout the series) and that is not even to mention the outright pathetic designs of the monsters in this game, not scary and very clearly rushed. The setting of this game is a child's bedroom which completely strips the game of all the personality and originality that it had in the previous entries.

All the imaginary animatronics have the most terrifying designs to them replicating very well what it feels to be afraid of monsters that your mind as a child can conjure to create fear. The gameplay has priority emphasis on paying attention to sound. You become desperate to check each location in your room to avoid getting jumpscared as a night progresses.

    The jumpscare issue the last game faced is more than resolved here but the gameplay and lore has become rather lacking here with a thirst for more context.

Well, when i saw that you needed to listen for breathing, i was excited at first, but i never actually liked having to crank up my audio to hear the sounds... this actually brings a great fear factor. The anxiety it creates to actually mess up and get jumpscared while having that audio at 90% or more... truly terrifying. The game also gets quite challenging during later nights. You are greeted with an atari-like minigame every time you finish a night that tells the story of a crying child. If you don't know the lore of the game, they might just look like nonsense to you, which sucks.

    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.

    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 tries to be at least terrifying, but it fails into it.
    Maybe if Scott would've putted better execution during development, it would've been better.

When first playing the 1st game, I was absolutely terrified the whole way through! 2nd and 3rd games weren't very scary, but boy oh boy, did this game give me the exact feelings that I felt when playing the 1st game!

Scott made a *beep* move when it comes to gameplay, bumping the scaryness and annoyance up, since (yet again) you can see the jumpscares coming from a mile away. At least there is no room for babying it out and turning the volume down here. The game is repetetive, especially since there is no camera, but at least it fits the theme of the game and makes you more helpless. The game's scaryness is ok. The animatronics, while scary are predictable. At least the fact that you are a kid makes it scarier since it makes you feel more helpless.
    In short, the game is mediocre in everything.

    The story doesn't feel flat, but the gaming does. FNaF 4 just isn't as immersive and serious as it's 3 predecessors. It's too different to be better.

    FNaF 4 has to be the worst game of the franchise, and this is coming from a big FNaF fan. The gameplay is probably the worst of the series, with the whole notion being very confusing to me about the Nightmare animatronics still. Lore wise, there weren't a whole lot of contributions made, besides the possible Bite of '87.

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.

    en cuanto a la trama, puedo decir que es una historia misteriosa, que no necesita mas ni menos, y es perfecta asi.

    I'm not a fan of Fnaf. This game changed a lot than other FNAF games, now you can move door to door. I think that the way to avoid the animatronics is very original and smart, you have to hear low breathing, and it makes that you increase the volume and it scares more. but sincerely, it's that boring, same that others game.

    So, it's a 3 for me.

    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.

    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.

You have to hear for when an animatronic is near, which while it is a good idea, it's not used very often during the nights. You also have to check behind you and in a closet, which gives the constant fear of being attacked from behind. The jumpscares are pretty scary this time around, because in some cases, you never know when they'll scare you, which make this game's jumpscares the best in the series. Depending on your jumpscare tolerance, you'll get scared almost every time, but if you know what to expect, you'll never get scared. It's a solid horror experience, and if you enjoy the series, you'll like this game. I can see why some people don't like this game, it can be unentertaining at times, and the fan base is a bit.. rabid to say the least, but the game by itself is still a satisfying experience, and a great conclusion to the FNaF franchise.

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.

    More importantly, the entire franchise makes an attempt to have some sort of weird, deep, twisting mystery behind it. It's a horror story to be sure and as you play the games, bits and pieces of the story get revealed through a number of ways. The rest of this is left up to the game community to speculate on what is actually happening.

    Many of us jumped on board with the game because we were intrested in the story, less of the actual game and we hoping that by the end of Five Nights at Freddy's 4, most of the story would be revealed. This couldn't beany further from the truth. The "final" game (and I use that term loosely) barely answers anything, while bringing up even more questions. Scott in all of his glory decided that since the community couldn't unravel the story, that he wasn't going to shed anymore light on it.

    That's right, the developer of the franchise, the one that used to be a failure in game development, that used to work at a dollar store, who was lifted from the dirt and pushed into the spotlight by his fan base now refuses to actually elaborate anymore on the story. Talk about a giant middle finger to the people who have financially supported Scott.

    Scott has already admitted the first game was supposed to be the only one, but it was so successful, he decided to continue pushing out more games. Given the fact he had no future plans for the franchise and he had to come up with a story, on the spot, I have a feeling Scott threw in a bunch of junk and then allowed the community to come up with theories for his game, essentially doing the writing for him.

    It's my opinion that Scott had NO IDEA how to wrap up the games, he had NO IDEA what he was doing and because of that, he bascially refused to explain anything, blaming it on the fans for not being able to "find" all of his clues.

    More of an insult, his latest game is simply a different game, using all of the old characters from the first four games. Scott doesn't even respect his fans enough to make an attempt to actually make anything new or unique. Scott is going to continue to milk the furry cash cow until it's all dried up and dead.

    Limited gameplay, shallow game mechanics, poor writing, it's almost embarrassing how little effort Scott put into this game, he should be ashamed at how much he has not only milked this franchise, but his "fans". I'll never spend another single penny in support of Scott and none of you should either.

    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.
