What is Five Nights at Freddy's (Series)?

Five Nights at Freddy's (often abbreviated FNaF) is a series of point-and-click survival horror video games created by Scott Cawthon. The series is centered around a fictional pizza restaurant called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where the player acts as a night security guard fending off animatronic animal characters that become mobile and homicidal after hours.

The original Five Nights at Freddy's game was released in 2014 and became an unexpected hit, spawning a multimedia franchise consisting of eight more games, novelizations, guidebooks, and an upcoming film adaptation. The series is known for its creepy, limited camera-based gameplay, eerie atmosphere, and backstory told through environmental clues rather than exposition.

Key features of the Five Nights at Freddy's games include resource management (such as keeping an eye on battery power for cameras/lights), use of security cameras to track murderous animatronic movements, jump scares, and cryptic storytelling through newspaper clippings and other clues peppered throughout the setting. The series has gained significant popularity on YouTube and other video streaming platforms.
