Before the year ends, I'm going to recommend what I think is the best fangame of this year.


I've been pretty much dead all year, but I promise that in a few days I'll review two more games and the FNAF movie before I go back to being dead again lol. But today I'll recommend what I think is the best FNAF fangame of the year.

Five New-Fangled Nights

It's a reimagining of the first FNaF game, transporting you in a comical and entertaining way through the events of the same game.

The story takes place in a Freddy's arcade where the murdered children plot how to kill the security guard, whom they believe to be the murderer. You'll discover the answer when you play the game.

The game mixes the common mechanics of any FNAF but adds its own touch with that incredible and beautiful drawing style reminiscent of 60s cartoons; that same technique was seen in other games like Cuphead or Bendy and it looks gorgeous in FNaF.

That art style looks beautiful throughout the game, in the cutscenes and the glam play, which is why I felt this experience was refreshing when I tried it. I would love it if they added a color filter, if possible, although adding it would take away some of the fun of the game.

The mechanics are classic FNAF, like closing doors, monitoring cameras, or turning off lights, so I don't think they'll find the game difficult. It would be night 6, but I have faith they'll beat it.

The story is like watching a short film, as the gameplay is so entertaining that it feels like you're watching an episode of Looney Tunes or Mickey Mouse or any cartoon from that era.

The game's content includes the five main nights plus extra nights like the Custom Night and the minigame you can play after each night.

Besides the fact that its extras section is by far one of the best done in a fangame of this kind, and also features the participation of other animatronics such as Rat from FNaC or Popgoes from the game of the same name, I'll leave the links to the videos so you can appreciate it

In conclusion, it's a very entertaining and fun fangame that you can play for a while. It doesn't have a very long duration like some other fangames, but it's sufficient for what it offers, and that's good. It's one of the most refreshing fangames of the year and one of the best I've tried by far. My final rating is 8.5/10.

I'd love to see more fangames like this, as they're so much fun because of the different ways you can shape their concept. A great example of that is Playtime with Percy, but this is by far the best fangame of the year, and I highly recommend you try it. Please support its creator so they can create more gems like this. See you next time with another review, so I'm off! Bye!

Oblitus Casa 2.0 was finally released. Let's remember that its first version was somewhat mediocre in the technical section but now they have released this update we will see how they improved the entire game now we have to enjoy.

Jolly 4 Is it canceled or paused?

Opinion Review

Showman´s The Awakening

popgoes evergreen but better

Virus J is a great game, highly recommended, a deep dark raw story, but with incredible terror and an incredible visual aesthetic, it is perfect, I recommend playing it and continuing to wait for the next chapters.

Something happened

when there was one

#FNAF

I am planning to make a Fnaf fangame but development would not begin until at least 2027 and I would promise that I would dedicate enough time to it to make it perfect.

Officially El Ultimo Sigh 2 will come out this October 31 of this year, although the creator says that there is a probability that it will come out before, but even so, they take this date as fixed.
