WARNING
This review has Bernard Clara and lots of Friedrich's!
Anyway, welcome to Five Nights at Friedrich's!
A goofy lil’ fnaf 1 reimagining where everything is silly, weird, and absolutely unhinged in the best way possible.
I don't have much else to say so let's start! here's the menu.

It has the usual stuff including good music but enough about that let's start a new game.

heh i get to hear allllllllllllll the copyrighted music i want and you get jackshit hell yeah onto the actual game
here’s our office something straight out of the way. the art style? it looks so good. i’m not gonna go super deep into it, but yes, i am absolutely a fan of this game looking the way it does. it looks very, very good. me like. me like.

The office is a pretty cozy place except the corpse i guess but WHATEVER, we don't have a phone call but we do have a guide book that tells us all we need.

Let's just open it up an-

oh.....
Some stupid bitch cut all the pages.... but fear not the back of the book will save us.

mhm aha hmm i see i get it all now so let's get started.
Nn night 1 only 2 animatronics are active those being Bernard and Clara


Let's start with Clara first.
Your main task throughout the nights is to cook pizzas, simply go to the kitchen cam and press the button to cook pizzas.

If you DON'T cook the pizzas Clara will try to cook them herself which backfires horribly and causes the whole place to be set on fire.

when this happens, use the sprinklers to put the fire out. however, it'll also make it so that using the buttons will take a bit longer, so uh make sure you're cooking lots of pizzas. onto bernard.
he's just an average door character that can go to both doors. when you see his hand, use the laser to make him leave.

and yeah, that was night 1, a pretty simple start, but.... what if i tell you there are these super secret things called "minigames," and you can get these minigames from the arcade machines in the cams? let's check them out!
first up, we got cooking with clara.
the minigames are like wario ware minigames, where you have to do them really fast in a short amount of time. for this one, just put on the correct slop on your slop pizza to then serve the slop to peopleslop.

You have to do this three different times and on the third try... everything becomes EVIL including Clara herself.


And yeah that was the minigame onto uh onto night 2.
Here's tonights notes.


This night we got Felix and the endoskelett active.


Felix is pretty simple, after a certain amount of cam flips he'll appear in the office and you heave to go spin his wheel in his cam, he can't kill you but he can block the lasers.

The endoskelett is just another laser character you know what to do.

That's about it night wise so onto the minigame which is Felix's wheel!
It's super simple just touch the green part of the circle yes that's it.

Just like cooking Clara on the third try something different happens when you win...


OH.
Well uhhhh.... rest in pieces felix... heh HAH anyway onto night 3.


Now you might ask what the fuck is a F-PA09 or F-NJ02 well uh i have no idea the hell does it mean by "remember"
On night 3 the main man himself Friedrich becomes active.

Just like everyone else in the game he's super simple, he goes to the cam 10 vent and when he's super close use the lasers on him.

Again that's about it for the night so onto the last minigame.
in this one you just have to spam left click a lot to win

hey at least friedrich does the uh sonic adventure pose here when you win

And on the third try he punches a man so hard that he gets sharp teeth.

And yeah that was it kind of a lame minigame but whatever onto night 4 wait huh?

yeah, so uh, the power’s gone now, and we have a flashlight to help us actually see shit.
no one new becomes active this night, so perfect time for me to share my thoughts on the gameplay so far, and it's pretty fun! the mechanics are super simple, but they work together really well. my only real gripe is that i wish more cams were useful and that the endo did something more unique instead of just copying bernard’s mechanics, but whatever.
night 4 is pretty standard. you still deal with everyone the same way; you just don't see them that well. there are some strange sounds, though. that probably means nothi— OH MY GOD, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT.

The thing screams so fucking loudly that it sends us right into a springlock suit killing our character WOW.

Night 5 starts with our spring locked character making his way back to the office till the golden fucker shows up again.
Our character not giving a fuck about any of this just punches him right in the face.

Goldie starts up the radio and our last shift at Friedrich starts.....
On night 5 you guessed it! golden Friedrich becomes active who has multiple ways of attacking.

On 12 am he only has one attack that being you having to find him on the cameras.

On 1 am bernard and clara become active and goldie starts going to the doors.

On 2 am bernard and clara shut down and felix and endo take over their places and goldie starts attacking from the vents.

On 3 am friedrich becomes active and goldie does his final attack which is him appearing in the office and you having to punch him.

on 4 am, goldie shuts off the power again, and now EVERYONE’S active.
and finally, on 5 am, it's just you and goldie while a fnaf 1 song remix starts playing.
overall, night 5 is fucking awesome and EASILY the best part of the whole game. the banger music, the constant chaos it's awesome from start to finish. i wouldn't change a thing about it.
anyway, even though we stay very locked in, our character still fails, and goldie wins.....

But we ain't done yet, there's still a night 6 err night 1 depending on how you look at it.
A new character picks up the newspaper and becomes the new night guard at Friedrich's.

Night 6 i mean uh night 1 starts and huh i wonder who could that be.

On night 6 the last and final character of the game Fritterfalle becomes active.

he's super simple. whenever he starts moving, just hold down his nose to make him reset. that's literally it. uh, lame?
night 6 as a whole is kinda lame, to me at least. nothing all that exciting happens, goldie is nowhere to be seen, and the new threat, despite having a great design, isn't really all that exciting, but still an alright final challenge.
we beat night 6, get our paycheck, and then it just ends!

there's a lot more content in the game most of it being in the custom night which i am not gonna yap about but overall this was a really fun time! there are some certain aspects of the game that i wish could be improved upon but beside those i had a blast playing through friedrich's and it gets itself a solid 8.5/10 it's 100% earned it
thanks for reading and i'll see yall on the flipside!
