Five Nights at Freddy's has become an established and popular horror franchise by Scott Cawthon. The series still receives new games and updates on occasion, but it's nice to go back to the roots of the series. If you recently played the first game or you want to try out the series, consider looking at the Five Nights at Freddy's 2 demo.

What is This Game?

Five Nights at Freddy's 2 puts you in a new Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria location. You are stuck in your office and must fend off different animatronics that come your way. If they reach your character, then you receive a jump-scare and the game mentions that the animatronics will stuff you into a Freddy Fazbear suit, which would kill you.

In the previous game, you had doors that you could close to block off any animatronics from entering your office. Now, you have two open vents on each side of you and a hallway in front of you. The animatronics can enter from any of these places and you have a "special surprise" waiting for you at the Prize Corner.

Gameplay Mechanics

The game allows you to look left and right in your office so that you can look at the vents. Each vent has a light above it that you can click on to see if any of the animatronics plan to surprise you with a visit. You can also use your flashlight to check the hallway in front of you, but you do have limited battery.

If any of the animatronics are about to enter your room, or if they get in, then you need to quickly flick your mouse down on the left side to put on a mask. This Freddy mask tricks the animatronics into thinking that you're an animatronic, so they leave. You can also flick down on the right side to access your cameras.

The cameras let you keep an eye on the animatronics, though you also need to go to the Prize Corner camera often. There's a music box there and you have to keep winding it up so that you don't meet an unwanted surprise.

The Demo Version

This demo allows you to enjoy all the gameplay mechanics and see what the game offers. You can only play the first night, but you can try out all the controls and mechanics to see if you will enjoy the game. Since it's the first night, you won't face too many challenges, but enough to get a feel for the game.

This way, you can experience the game and know if it's something that you want to play. Experience checking your cameras, keeping an eye on the animatronics and surviving until the clock reaches 6 AM. Make sure to manage your battery, cameras, mask and the music box so that you won't face a jump-scare from one of Freddy's friends.

Conclusion

The Five Nights at Freddy's 2 demo allows you to try out the game and see if you like it. Here are the notable pros and cons.

This game provides plenty of fun to make it an enjoyable horror experience. Feel free to download the demo for yourself and see if you like the game. You can buy it for your computer or on your smart phone.
