Gameplay Overview

Survive five increasingly terrifying nights as a security guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza by monitoring security cameras and managing limited electrical power. Your primary objective is to track the movements of four animatronic characters - Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy - who become active after midnight and hunt for human intruders. Each night from 12 AM to 6 AM presents escalating challenges as the animatronics become more aggressive and unpredictable. You must balance power consumption between security cameras, door lights, and emergency door locks while making split-second decisions about when to check cameras versus securing your office. Strategic resource management becomes crucial as running out of power leaves you completely defenseless against the approaching animatronics.

How to Play

Begin your shift by selecting difficulty and AI levels for each animatronic character, then click READY to start your first night. Use your mouse to click the camera button at the bottom of your screen to access the security monitor system and track animatronic movements throughout the restaurant. Monitor your power percentage carefully as it depletes with camera usage, door controls, and hallway lights. Click on different camera locations to switch views and locate the animatronics, paying special attention to Pirate Cove where Foxy resides. When you spot animatronics near your office, immediately close the appropriate doors using the door controls and use hallway lights to check for threats before opening doors again.

Strategy Guide

Master power conservation by checking cameras strategically rather than constantly - quick glances are more efficient than prolonged monitoring. Focus primarily on Pirate Cove and the hallway corners where immediate threats appear, as these locations require the most attention. Close doors only when animatronics are directly threatening your location, as keeping doors closed continuously will drain power too quickly. Listen carefully to audio cues like footsteps and kitchen noises that indicate animatronic activity without requiring camera checks. Advanced players should learn movement patterns and timing to predict when each character will appear, allowing for precise door timing that maximizes power efficiency while ensuring survival.

Controls & Interface

Mouse Click to interact with all game elements including cameras, doors, and lights. Camera Button at bottom of screen opens and closes security monitor. Left/Right Door Buttons secure office entrances when animatronics approach. Light Buttons illuminate hallways to check for threats before opening doors. Camera Map allows selection of different monitoring locations throughout the restaurant. ESC key pauses the game.

Tips, Tricks & Secrets

Check Pirate Cove every few camera flips to prevent Foxy from running down the hall - neglecting this camera guarantees a game over. The Kitchen camera only provides audio, so listen for pots and pans clattering to track Chica's movements. Freddy becomes more active in complete darkness, so avoid running out of power at all costs. If you hear breathing at your door, immediately close it without checking the light first. The animatronics move more frequently on higher difficulty nights, so adapt your checking patterns accordingly. Golden Freddy can be triggered by specific camera combinations, but closing and reopening cameras makes him disappear.
