Here's a guide to the best, worst, and weirdest Five Nights at Freddy's clones. Did I have some fun cycling through the lower end of the Android game barrel? You bet.
All you need to trade on the series' success, it turns out, is killer bears, jump scares, and the word "night." Do you want to play through most of them? Probably not. Cloning its extremely distinctive and deceptively simple gameplay isn't as easy as making a vaguely Halo-ish shooter or a reskinned version of Flappy Bird.īut that hasn't stopped the developers of Nights at Cube Pizzeria 3D, Bear Haven Nights Horror, One Freddy Story 4, or any of the other games you'll find beneath Five Nights at Freddy's in the Google Play Store search. Over the first game's titular five nights, players take the role of a security guard, using a limited power supply to cycle through security cameras, turn on lights, and slam doors to avoid the clutches of murderous animatronic animals.
But it wasn't until a few weeks ago that I discovered the beautifully weird rabbit hole that is Five Nights at Freddy's clones.įive Nights at Freddy's, for the unfamiliar, is an extremely popular series of horror games - it's also got a film adaptation in progress.
I'm willing to accept that there's a clone for just about everything, given how cheap and easy it is to rip off a mechanic, slap some new art on it, and put it in the Play Store. Everyone knows about Android game clones - the ripoffs that are generally named something like Flappy, Crush Some Candy-Like Objects, and Mine Block Craft Story.
