"Five Nights at Freddy's" is a survival horror game developed by Scott Cawthon, released in August 2014. Set in a fictional family pizzeria called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, players take on the role of Mike Schmidt, a nighttime security guard tasked with monitoring the establishment's animatronic characters during the night shift. As the hours progress, the once-friendly animatronics become increasingly aggressive and malevolent, leading to terrifying encounters that players must navigate to survive until morning.
Gameplay revolves around managing limited resources, specifically electricity, as players utilize security cameras to track the movements of the animatronics. Each character has its own unique behavior patterns, forcing players to develop strategies to keep them at bay. The tension escalates as the night advances, with jump scares and a looming sense of dread heightening the player's anxiety. The game cleverly incorporates elements of lore and backstory through found audio tapes and newspaper clippings, gradually unraveling the dark history of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza and its haunted past. "Five Nights at Freddy's" has gained a dedicated fanbase, spawning numerous sequels, merchandise, and adaptations, solidifying its place in indie horror gaming history.
