FNaF World

Five Nights at Freddy’s is a franchise that managed to create quite a bit of hype amongst gamers, even if the games themselves featured pretty simple concepts. However, the atmosphere was quite exciting, and the jump scares always seemed to catch gamers off-guard. Hence, more is only natural to follow, especially since it is pretty simple to continue a story with not much substance to begin with.

An open world adventure for the whole gang

FNaF World is an open world RPG that allows you to form parties with the Five Nights at Freddy’s characters and go on a journey to save the world. The mechanics are very similar to the ones usually used by JRPGs, which means that the combat is turn-based (in a way), the map is riddled with random encounters, and the entire thing is played from a top-down perspective.
The story revolves around Freddy and his friends again, only this time the events take place in a different world. This world is affected by the ones on top of it, however, so it is your job to clean it of bad guys and return everything to normal. You can form parties of up to four characters, each one of which has special abilities that come in handy during violent encounters. Naturally, this party can be changed whenever you want to include a new member or try a different strategy.

Multiple skills to choose from

The combat is not exactly turn-based, because both sides can attack at the same time, more or less. Each character has three abilities they can use, depending on their specialization and talent. Some can heal the party and provide them with bonuses, while others deal heavy damage with AoE attacks. There are also those that can target enemies with curses and reduce their effectiveness in battle.
As far as the graphics are concerned, the top-down view does not allow for too much detail, but it should be enough for most intents and purposes. The characters turn to 3D models during the combat mode, on the other hand, so there’s definitely something to please your eyes as well. In addition, the ability effects are quite nice, but they can also be very disorienting and confusing sometimes.

An engaging experience with fewer jump scares

All things considered, FNaF World should be a great way to get more familiar with the Five Nights at Freddy’s characters. Not only that, but the gameplay is quite exciting as well, at least if you enjoy this type of RPGs.
