Five Nights at Candy’s 2
Five Nights at Candy’s 2 is an indie fan-made game inspired by the popular horror series Five Nights at Freddy's (FNAF). Created by Emil Ace Macko, this game brings a fresh twist to the beloved FNAF formula, featuring a new cast of animatronic characters that come to life at night in a different setting. The game picks up after the events of Five Nights at Freddy's 2, where Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has shut down, and a new establishment, a Burger & Fries chain, has taken its place. But, as always in the FNAF universe, things don't go as planned.
Overview of Five Nights at Candy’s 2
Set in a creepy new location, this game puts you back in the shoes of a night guard trying to survive against a roster of new and dangerous animatronics. As you keep watch in the dark halls of this seemingly innocent burger joint, you quickly realize that the animatronics—Candy the Cat, Cindy the Cat, The Penguin, and others—have a sinister side. They roam the establishment at night, and it's up to you to keep them at bay using your wits and the limited tools at your disposal.
The game was built from scratch using Clickteam Fusion 2.5 and is an homage to the original Five Nights at Freddy's games created by Scott Cawthon. Although it draws heavy inspiration from the original series, Five Nights at Candy’s 2 introduces its own unique mechanics and characters, delivering a new challenge for fans of the genre.
