Overview

Five Nights at Freddy's: HW is a collection of original mini-games from the Freddy series released by Steel Wool Studios on October 26, 2020, and is the eighth installment in the series.


Five Nights at Freddy's: HW is presented in a first-person perspective and builds on ten playable mini-games based on previous games in the series. These mini-games largely reproduce the mechanics of the previous games in the series, so the main task of the player is to avoid the attacks of the electronic animals. Players can access these mini-games from the Game Center, and the mini-games are grouped by specific game source and sorted by increasing difficulty. This will make it easier for players to find them. Players want to avoid losing all mini-games, as this is bound to cause them to be frightened.

Gameplay

Five Nights at Freddy's: HW as a collection of games offers players a variety of opportunities to play. The game opens with a quick look at the history of Freddy Fazbear's pizza business. Like all the stories about murderous animatronics and worker deaths. It is then explained to the player that the game they are about to experience is a VR simulation of those "what if" events. The game consists of seven different mini-games, and each game has several different levels that increase in difficulty as it progresses. While each game presents different content, the game's controls operate very closely.

 

► Because the power in the game may be limited. Therefore, players need to find a balance between different game elements in order to maintain a stable night.

► There are six mini-games that require players to stop animatronics from entering their bedrooms by strategically opening and closing doors. The VR movement method allows the player to move by "teleporting" to different locations within the field of view.

► All buttons and controls are arranged around the 3D office, which players can observe and physically interact with through security cameras. [

► In the Parts & Service mini-game, players need to maintain the animatronics by opening compartments and replacing parts around the body.

► In the air vent repair mini-game, players must solve puzzles by flipping levers and pressing buttons, while using headlights to fight off animatronic animals like Mangle and Ennard.

► Five Nights at Freddy's: HW Winning each minigame on Normal difficulty unlocks the corresponding minigame in Blacklight Mode. These games are more difficult because of increased visual or auditory distractions.

Five Nights at Freddy’s HW is the eighth game in the franchise. This game consists of 50 different small games which are quite different from the previous generation. A lot of the mini-games recreate the previous series of games. You will still have to be prepared for familiar old circumstances and want out for yourself. You will have to be ready for horror and surprise to play!

 

This game is still kid/teenage-friendly. It’s interesting but at the same time not that frightening as well. You can access this game through VR headsets which are completely new in the series. It’s quite easy to get the hang of it. You are still in the same old pizza place trying to survive 5 nights and you can still access the surveillance camera and all the other tools trying your best to avoid jump scare and survive. The chills you got from this game will make you feel like you are being attacked in real life, so always be careful.

 

Let’s talk about the pros of this game. The major factor in making Five Nights at Freddy’s such a great game is the great pacing and how the developers develop how scares are delivered. The tenser the atmosphere gets, you will become more fearful which makes a horror of jump scare, a vicious cycle for the players. The VR headset brought up a different of scares because you are not clicking on your phone or your keyboard anymore. This is legit 3D, so you will feel like you live in that space which makes it more realistic. This game is also wildly popular and full of positive reviews. The developing team did a good job of tracking the head movement and setting up the right environment and the movement sensor with sound effects making the new generation of Five Nights at Freddy’s really at its highest level. Also, the depreciation of VR headsets makes players easier to get to explore the VR worlds as they always wanted.

 

But I want to point out the cons of this game as well. VR the best way to explore Five Night’s at Freddy’s? As a previous VR user, I got frequently headaches from using a VR headset Non-stop for 30 mins. I’m afraid that this game with its intense paste and horror effects will strike me out maybe even in 15 minutes. I might just feel dizzy and obnoxious since VR is not for everyone to put on for a long time without feeling sick. You have to do a lot of tasks over and over again in the VR headset when you fail or die which can make the process less enjoyable more like suffering. This is not brain-friendly and I can feel overwhelmed by it. It’s really difficult for me who can even get dizzy on a driving VR simulator so it’s hard to keep playing if I just kept failing or dying. And that leads to a problem. If I choose to play it on Sundays only, and next week I will have to redo some missions and maybe forget about the right way of doing it which makes it even harder for me to pass.

 

In conclusion, I like the ideas and designs of the game, but I feel like I would rather try out this game when a VR headset can completely feel like it's in real life. I still recommend people to try it especially if you are the fans of Five Nights at Freddy’s because it spikes up the new elements and understanding of horror and the tenseness of the generation!
