    Increible juego, lo unico que no es relevante pero se acepta, que no hay muchos easter eggs, pero la jugabilidad, gráficos e historia son espectaculares, este juego no es recomendado para menores de 12 años y los que no sepan ingles, porque o sino no, no entenderán la historia y que hacer, reitero, es el mejor de los FNaF

    Five Nights at Freddy's Sister Location takes admirable risks without ever letting us down. It adds more to the story proving once again that Freddy and his pals are still haunting our nightmares!

    Una Jugabilidad Algo Nueva Hace Que La Franquicia Se Renueve Y Vuelva A Ser Algo Interesante Nuevamente ... Recomendable Aunque Le Faltan Algunas Mejoras Puede Que La Siguiente Entrega Los Arregle

    Sister Location is definatly the best game since FNaF 1 and it is a huge improvement over 2, 3, & 4, the game is still pretty flawed though and it still doesn't reveal much of the lore. The mechanics are neat, the voice acting is great, the story is pretty good, and the animations and level design have improved greatly.

    I really liked this game and its probably my 2nd favourite fnaf game(after fnaf 1).The voice acting was great,the gameplay is linear and it looks like it's not fnaf and that's good.I only didn't like the fact that it takes 4-5 hours to beat the game.If the gameplay is linear than there should be at least 7 nights,not just 5.But still,I rate it 10/10.

    this game is awesome
    the voice acting is pretty cool
    the gameplay is unique and the nights are not the same thing over and over again like the previous fnaf games the only problem is the jumpscares aren't that much of a deal but if you play at night with headphones and the volume all the way up it will make you scared a lot! and holy god the lore in this one is awesome!!! good job

    Very innovative, every night is different, graphics better than the previous and more scary and tense. The voices that Scott chose are perfect and fit in all the characters of the game, making the game more immersive.

    A Big improvement. unlike Fnaf 2, 3 and 4, this game is not just sitting in one single room, each nights were different now. Creepy and unsettling. the voice acting was incredible. the game would be better if Baby actually appeared in your face or having a jumpscare, rather than just hearing her voice.

    The story and the gameplay mixed together is balanced. I love the jumpscares and I would choose them any day over FNAF 3. The story really makes you think. Overall Sister Location is a great game.

    FNaF is back! After two mediocre games, Sister Location brings FNaF back to its former glory, with gameplay mechanics we all missed, and some very good additions to the lore. This game probably ranks second or third in the franchise in my book.

    It's certainly different, but it's fun. This game challenges the user to solve puzzles in order to advance, feels more like you're working in an animatronic restaurant. This sets it apart from the rest.

    O melhor jogo da franquia ''Five Nights At Freddy's'' desparado, o que apresenta melhores diálogos, história e até jogatina, ele deixa de ser a mesma coisa em todas as noites, e a cada noite é um objetivo diferente, cada vez mais difícil e interessante.

No joke every night is different to the last, there is 5 but they have so much to them expect one night which is very frustrating. However there are two secret levels that are so satisfying to reach to and make the game even bigger. The extra menus are back with more info on the animatronics and such, not to mention the great story this game has its the greatest in the series. Of course the jumpscares like Five Nights At Freddys 4 are very well made and terrifying as hell, and the first inclusion of voice acting is very well executed. Sister Location is an amazing idea with very scary moments jumpscares and an atmosphere that is jaw dropping, the levels even support that with the mystery and the amazing gameplay for each night, it might very well be the best in the series again it’s a hard competition but None the less it’s for you to decide.

    An entertaining and atmospheric experience that changed the FNaF formula. Although this takes more time to explain the lore of the series, it is a worthy and sometimes challenging take in Scott's creations.
    edit: forgot to talk about the soundtrack, which is very cool!

    As a Fnaf game, this doesn't function well. But as a game on its own, it has a great and complex story (as these games have), and very scary tone and presentation that helps deliver a really good game. I highly recommend this to those that love horror games, but not to Fnaf fans, since it is not really works as a good Fnaf game.

    Personally I do enjoy this game, but not as much as the original four games. I love the new direction this game took, moving away from a completely point and click horror game to one where you crawl around completing tasks. Do note that this, like the other games in this franchise, is linear and you must follow a set path completing tasks, but it is still a heart pounding experience whichPersonally I do enjoy this game, but not as much as the original four games.

    This game has a much different feel than the other games in the Fnaf franchise. Fairly creative gameplay with some major differences. Such as controlled shocks, locating around the Sister Location, and fixing springlocks. Still relys on jumpscares.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Perhaps the scariest five nights at Freddy’s game I’ve played in a long time!

    Scott does it again with another great for FNAF game. I consider this to be the best one by far! It has a great story, really interesting gameplay mechanics that keep the game fresh, the refreshing sci-fi like environments, and the jump scares are perhaps the best in the franchise, it’s a game that always gives me chills when playing, the only real problem here is the difficulty spike in the 3rd and 4th night, especially the Funtime Foxy and Springlock sections, they were so hard, that it sorta took me out of the game, but otherwise, it’s the most ambitious and daring fnaf game, going for more gameplay and story, along side it’s stunning sci-fi like visuals, I highly recommend this game for anybody who is a fnaf fan, or even some non fnaf fans, as it shows the quality of these games

    Score: 8.5/10

    One of my favorite games in the FNaF series. It does a lot to keep the gameplay fresh and interesting throughout its pretty short runtime. The main complaint about the main game is how it can become trial and error in trying to beat the game. You will just keep dying until you figure out how to beat it or look up a guide. It has a pretty good story with some awesome voice

It has a pretty good story with some awesome voice acting. I also really like the style of this game and the music is great too. The real reason this is one of my favorite entries is because of the custom night. It is one of the best designed custom nights in the series. Every character has a purpose and a way to stop them. It also barely relies on any RNG. The best example is Golden Freddy mode which is the hardest difficulty. It took me many tries but each time I died I could feel myself improving and getting better at the gameplay until I finally beat it. It is very rewarding to see how skill plays such a big factor into the custom night mode.

    I’m glad Cawthon is looking for a new direction for FNAF, but Sister Location has a poorly outlined story, its gameplay is not all that engaging and additionally it lacks tension present in previous games. [13/2016, p.68]

    Sister Location is a fantastic horror game, even if it doesn’t particularly feel like the rest of the FNAF series.
