Five Nights At Freddy's

I hope you're ready for a huge animatronic horror-fest, because Five Nights At Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon has launched a project to help fund a bunch of the games made by fans inspired by the series. The Fazbear Fanverse Initiative will invest in some of the more popular fan games that have appeared over the years, including a remake of the first FNAF."There have been…

There's a long, dark future ahead of Scott Cawthon and his Five Nights At Freddy's series. In a blog-post on Steam today, the creator of the teen jump-scare horror phenomenon announced everything he could speak about regarding the future of the series.  There's an upcoming VR game made in collaboration with Steel Wool Studios, an Augmented Reality game (presumably only for phones), and a new free…

Scott Cawthon is an odd fellow. He started out making offbeat genre-blending RPGs before stumbling into wealth and fame with the Five Nights At Freddy's series. Several indie horror hits about surviving the night watch at a haunted animatronic pizza parlor, a line of official toys and a film in production later and what does he do? He goes back to making stuff for free.Ultimate…

Horror is one of my great obsessions. Comics, movies, literature, I don’t care what form it comes in as long as it has a chance of scaring me half to death. But what about films based on games? At this point, those of us who occupy the obscure section of the Venn diagram of life that includes fans of horror game-to-movie conversions are so artistically…

Oh, Scott Cawthon, you sneaky, sneaky man. Yesterday, we reported that the Five Nights at Freddy’s designer was working on a spin-off -- a pizzeria tycoon game. The announcement was accompanied by a single screenshot of a FNaF 8-bit arcade game. It’s out now on Steam, and it’s free to boot. It’s also not what it seems. Read on to have the surprise ruined for…

When Earth has become an empty wasteland waiting to be consumed by the sun, Scott Cawthon will still be making Five Nights at Freddy’s games. Since 2014, Cawthon has released six games in the series, and while he shelved the latest installment back in July, he’s already returned with a new one. Details are slim at the moment, but it looks like a… pizzeria simulator.

Several years ago, I went through a list of over 1,000 fan-made games inspired by Five Nights at Freddy's. And that was before the jumpscare 'em up series really took off. Several games (and one troubled spin-off) later, creator Scott Cawthon has confirmed that he was working on a Five Nights 6 of sorts - but confirmed this by announcing its cancellation. The pressure of…

BOO!You thought you were safe for a good few weeks but no, the spookening has begun. The spooky-spoos are out and they've come a-spooking. By which I mean Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location [official site] launched over the weekend. The latest in Scott Cawthon's smash hit jumpscare 'em up ventures to a new children's restaurant overrun with new animatronic monsters, and it also shakes…

I have the cold today which means I'm irritable and sniffly and struggling with the Monday morning blues more than usual. Perhaps the first trailer for animatronic scare fest Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location [official site] that snuck out of the shadows over the weekend can scare the sickness out of me?

Well, despite creator Scott Cawthon's suggestion that Five Nights At Freddy's 4 would be "the final chapter" of the juggernaut of jump scares, it seems things are going on. A new game is being teased on his website. The title, written across a robotic toy face, appears to be Sister Location, and that's joined by the tagline, "There was never just one." A spin-off? That's…

FNaF World [official site], the RPG spin-off from animatronic scare 'em up Five Nights at Freddy's, has returned and is now free. Creator Scott Cawthon released it in January, a month earlier than he'd previously planned, and some responses to the game made him rethink that. Really rethink that. He pulled the game from sale, decided to refund the $10 of everyone who bought it,…

Five Nights at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon has pulled his newly-released RPG spin-off FNaF World [official site] from sale and plans to refund all buyers, then re-release the game later for free. He's unhappy with its reception, he says, and wants to do better. He had released it a month earlier than planned and, apparently, that hasn't quite worked out.

Five Nights at Freddy's World [official site] may be taking the animatronic cast of the smash-hit jumpscare 'em up into a retro-style JRPG, but creator Scott Cawthon still likes to throw a surprise a two out. For example, BOO! It's out right now!FNaF World was due on February 19th but it's out a month early, right here right now right up in your face please…

I have never played a Five Nights at Freddy's [official site] game. This is nothing to do with loathing the art style or having no patience for jump-scares, and everything to do with an ancient prophecy that states the entire population of the world will spontaneously sprout weeping facial sores should a 5'6", quarter-Jewish man born in Upton Snodsbury, Worcestershire ever play a game about…

Five Nights at Freddy's [official site] creator Scott Cawthon has confirmed that while there won't be a fifth game in the main series - "the story is complete" - there will be another FNAF game soon. It's an RPG:"The new game that I'm working on will be called FNAF World. It will not be a horror game, but a role playing game where you create…

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a game in possession of a release date, must be in want of a delay. When Mr Ubi or Miss 2K (no known connection to Mis-Teeq) tell us that their next sequel will be coming out on May 12th, we're inclined to make like Kyle Reese and ask "WHAT YEAR?" Delays are common but when did a game…

Over eleven months and three games, Five Nights at Freddy's [official site] has terrified more children than I could hope to in a lifetime. Imagine their snotty little faces peeking out from beneath blankets at night, bottom lips quivering. The fools. Five Nights at Freddy's 4 will despoil this final sanctum, bringing animatronic jumpscare horrors into a normal home and a child's bedroom. Let's see…

Horror fans: you can stop mourning the cancellation of Silent Hills now. Developer Scott Cawthon has teased "The Final Chapter" of his Five Nights At Freddy's series, which suggests that Five Nights At Freddy's 4 [official site] is on the way. And if the teaser image is to be believed, it'll arrive on October 31st, 2015.

Update, September 14th: Shortly after this post, Five Nights fan games really took off. At one point, I had hoped to compile a new list of the 2362 games on Game Jolt, but, well, there were 2362 of them. I certainly did start, though, so now I've boshed another 922 games onto this list. I know, right? Game Jolt chose to section Five Nights fan…

I've not played Five Nights At Freddy's or its similarly horrorsome, animatronic sequel, but Adam came to appreciate its well-crafted tension and I do enjoy its commonly-used, lazy-sounding acronym. What's that game you're playing? "Fnaf," you say, and slip down your chair. What's that game that got a sequel just a few months after its first release at the tail end of 2014? "Fnaf," you…
