ANIMATRONIC SPOTLIGHT - Coffee


Welcome to the final Frickbear Friday! To start things off, here's a spotlight for one of the seven secret characters: Making his Frickbear's series debut, it's Coffee! While not originating from the FNaF series, you may recognize him from his cameos in games such as FNAF World or Help Wanted.

To give a bit of context as to what makes these characters "secret", Coffee is one of seven animatronics in the game that aren't available in the salvage locations through normal means - instead, they will only start appearing if the Backdoor Trading upgrade has been purchased, or if they get summoned in randomly via LolzHax or a King's Prize. As such, they're a lot harder to find than the main 40 characters on the roster!

Now, as for Coffee specifically...

Coffee will appear once per night, showing up over the UI at a random time. When he does, you'll have to complete his ping-pong minigame to make him go away. If you miss the ball, all your power will be drained. If you keep the rally going for long enough, however, Coffee's rabbit companion will eventually give up, and you'll be safe from him for the rest of the night. The higher Coffee's AI level, the longer this minigame will go on for, and the faster the ball will move.

While his minigame is fairly easy to keep up with in isolation (especially since it's always onscreen and can be played regardless of what you're doing at the given moment), Coffee can definitely challenge your multitasking skills if a lot of animatronics are active - especially ones that themselves demand some sort of precise mouse control. You'll have to get used to switching your focus between him and everything else going on if you want to make it past his minigame! If you like ping-pong and get lucky enough for him to appear in the first place, Coffee can definitely be worth picking up in your playthrough.

(It should also be noted that Coffee has an SP variant, which is the focus of the "Paddleball Panic" custom night challenge. This challenge has you keeping a ping-pong rally going for two minutes straight, increasing in speed and difficulty as the night goes on! It's one of my personal favorite challenges, so I hope you all look forward to that.)
