Five Nights at Freddy's 4

F​ive Nights at Freddy's 4 i​s a survival horror game developed and published by Scott Cawthon on 23 July 2015. It is the final chapter in the Five Nights at Freddy's series and has been released on Microsoft Windows, MAC OS and Android. Unlike its three predecessors, you play as a young boy (instead of a security guard) in his bedroom (instead of an office) during his nightmares and must prevent the vicious nightmare animatronics from entering his bedroom and killing him. This game has similar mechanics to the original Five Nights at Freddy's.

Gameplay
Unlike the other three games, this game takes place in a child's bedroom, and the player (a young boy) must run to the two doors on the left and right of the bedroom to check the left and right hallways of the boy's house. You can also run to your closet in front of you to check on Nightmare Foxy once he enters. You can also turn around and look at your bed behind you to wade off the Fredlets on your bed. Failure to do this will summon Nightmare Freddy, and you'll be jumpscared by him.

The flashlight also returns from FNaF 2, which you can use to light up the hallways, closet and bed to see any animatronics. However, a major change has been made; you have no camera systems, so you don't know where Nightmare Bonnie and Nightmare Chica will be. After the night you will play a short minigame called 'Fun with Plushtrap', in which you must stop a plush version of Springtrap from FNaF 3 onto a 'X' on the floor in the middle of a dark hallway with four doors in the hall. If you stop Plushtrap on the 'X', then you win and you start the next night on 2a.m. instead of 12a.m. However, failure to lure Plushtrap on the 'X' or getting Plushtrap too close and making him jumpscare you will make you lose and you will not earn the two hour bonus.

Story
The player, a young boy, has been locked in his bedroom. A plush version of Fredbear (the original Freddy Fazbear) guides the player in the short minigames after each night. The boy has a pile of plush animatronics (Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy), however the head of the plush Foxy is missing. Fredbear asks the boy what 'He' has done this time, and when the boy bangs on the door for 'Him' to let the boy out, he ends up crying. The boy is scared of the animatronics at the pizzeria, and every night he has nightmares of the animatronics attacking him. After the first night, the door is unlocked and the boy roams around his house, however he is jumpscared by a man wearing the plush Foxy head that was ripped off one of the boy's plushies, and he ends up crying.

After the second night, the boy is shown to have been abandoned at Fredbear's Family Diner, and that Fredbear is guiding him and telling him to leave. However, a man wearing a Fredbear suit blocks the exit, and the boy runs away. Fredbear tells the boy that animatronics are ahead and that he needs to be brave, however the boy is sensitive and terrified of the animatronics, and he ends up crying. After the third night the boy leaves the pizzeria, and it is shown as the boy walks home that other children think of the boy as a coward and a crybaby, that he is always bullied by other kids, and that there are rumours of the animatronics coming to life at night and attempting to murder people. When the boy gets home he is jumpscared by the Foxy mask man who is hiding under his bed. After the fourth night it is shown that the boy was once locked in the parts and services room of the pizzeria as a prank. =​SPOILERS FOLLOW= After the fifth night the boy is shown crying at his own birthday party at the pizzeria as he is being terrorized by 'Him' (who is revealed to be the boy's older brother) and his brother's bully friends who are wearing masks of the animatronics to scare the child. As a cruel prank, the boy's brother tells his friends to grab the boy and bring him to Fredbear to give him a 'big kiss'. The boy is carried through the pizzeria and brought close to Fredbear. The boys decide to play an even crueler joke by stuffing the boy's head into the mouth of Fredbear. The bullies laugh as the boy is stuck, however Fredbear, who is unable to sing, starts to forcefully close his jaw, and his teeth break through the boy's fragile skull and break it, while also ripping out the boy's frontal lobe, causing the Bite of '87.

That night all the nightmare animatronics mysteriously disappear, with a new animatronic, Nightmare Fredbear, taking their places. After the sixth night (with all the animatronics), the boy is in a dark dream with his plushies and the Fredbear plushy in front of him. A voice (of the brother) is heard apologizing to him, and Fredbear tells the child that the animatronics are still his friends, he is still there and no matter how many times he 'breaks', he and the others will put him back together. The plushies fade out one by one, leaving the child crying as the flatlining of a heart monitor can be heard. On the seventh night a new animatronic that looks like a demonic version of Nightmare Fredbear, simply titled Nightmare, will appear and will try to terrorize the boy. After the night a box will appear on the screen with two locks on it. If the player keeps jiggling the locks, the words 'Perhaps some things are best left forgotton, for now' will appear. A secret eighth night will also be unlocked.
