While playing the Five Nights At Freddy’s game, the player can observe the animatronic characters by keeping an eye on security cameras positioned throughout the restaurant. The game is set in an office where the player can see the characters. A limited quantity of electricity allows the player to operate the hallway lights, close the doors on each side of them, and monitor the camera feeds.

To keep the animatronics at bay, the player must use the camera feed points placed throughout the complex and the doors. The player will be frightened and the fnaf game will be deemed over if they are unable to achieve this. For the player to advance to the following night, they must stay alive from midnight until six in the morning.

Avoiding collisions with Freddy Fazbear, the game’s namesake, as well as his three friends Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy is the player’s main goal in this game. The fifth animatronic in the game is a secret character called Golden Freddy, and the only time he appears is during a hallucination.
