Five Nights at Freddy's 2

New minigames that expand the story more a lot of characters but the designs... aren't really as scary as the first games designs but then there is.... WITHERED CHICA SHE IS HORRYFYING basically just the first game but more.

The sequel of Scott Cawthon's big hit and considered one of the best games in the franchise, Five Nights at Freddy's 2 was released a few months after the first game (with a gap of less than two months), innovating in gameplay and bringing a narrative that proves to be much deeper and more disturbing than the one presented in the previous game. With many more Animatronics and a gameplay of greater attention and complexity, Five Nights at Freddy's 2 fixes some of the flaws of its predecessor (despite maintaining the same graphic and sound quality) and opens the door to countless theories speculated by fans.

With the same concept as the previous game, Five Nights at Freddy's 2 brings us a new narrative and "plays" with the chronology of the canon events (moments from the Original Story that are true) in the history of this universe. In this game, the new protagonist is hired to work as a Night Guard for five nights (from Midnight to 6am) in the new pizzeria of the Freddy Fazbear's Pizza chain, a pizzeria with a new brand image and more colourful animatronics, with better technology and suitable for all ages. Unlike the pizzeria we met in the previous game, here we find a new, clean and functioning pizzeria (but with the same vulnerability problems as the previous game, where all the Animatronics try to attack the protagonist). Instead of security doors for our own protection, we now have a Freddy mask (which serves to fool the Animatronics' facial recognition intelligence and thus prevent the attack), a flashlight (to illuminate the corridor in front of the office and mobilise some Animatronics) and a music box (which can never stop playing, whatever the cost). We still have the presence of the video surveillance system and the "Phone Guy" instructor, who calls every night to narrate events that are happening at the moment and further feed the narrative, which is now revealed through four mini-games that are randomly unlocked whenever the player is attacked by an Animatronic. These mini-games turn out to be metaphorical ways of narrating the story to the player in a creative way, other than through text or dialogue.

Despite all the changes mentioned and the variety of new Animatronics (in addition to the four main ones we already know), the game continues to offer an experience that can become tiring in the long run for the player and the level of terror remains in the spectrum of light suspense and jumpscares, already popular in the previous game. Like its predecessor, after completing the "Story Mode" (which consists of five nights), the player can still do the 6th Night and then play the "Custom Night Mode", the only difference being the identity of the protagonist and the extreme level of difficulty. So, all I have to say is that Five Nights at Freddy's 2 is an excellent sequel that manages to surpass the success of its predecessor, but the light level of terror doesn't satiate the search for "fright" and despair that some horror game fans are looking for. It still has the "Achilles heel" of repetitive gameplay, but it's still fun and challenging. Finally, I'll end this review by giving the game a rating of 7.5/10.

20 hours playing this game it feels im totally crazy with Golden Freddy mode, Scott Cawthon is really genius!

Thre's no doubt about that FNAF 2 is probably one of the best FNAF games in the series. It has more animatronics and new challenging to conquer, especially with no doors. This game does have hidden minigames to give in more depth of the FNAF lore, but it can only happen if you get a game over screen. As fun as this game is, the jumpscares does feel a bit repetitive. What I love about FNAF jumpscares is that it'll be unexpected if you're not careful, and this game does that too. However, when you keep seeing the same animations, it gets more frustrating rather than scare. I'm not gonna lie, I can see why this game was hyped and it came out the same year as the first game (CRAZY). I do personally enjoy this more than the first, but as the shock factor goes, the first game takes the cake.

This is a very fun game, but loses the atmosphere and creepiness of the first game. The design of the withered animatronics though is creepy as hell (especially Chica)
