Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is the second version of the popular game Five Knights at Freddy's series. The game is set in a fictional Freddy’s Fazbear’s Pizzeria. The game is about getting through the Five nights after a previous night guard is transferred to the day shift. You need to keep away the animatronics that is trying to get access to the office.

Five Nights at Freddy's 2 gameplay is based on an exciting horror theme. The gameplay is based on point-and-click features. You are taking over from a security guard who has been transferred to the day shift.

The security guard had reported animatronics trying to access the office. You have to survive the Five nights at Freddy’s Pizzeria with the help of a new head costume.

The head costume is a hollow Fazbear mascot head. With this costume, you will deceive the animatronics into thinking you are one of them. Remember, the costume doesn't scare Foxy and Marionette.

The animatronics include those in the first series and new ones such as Marionette the puppet and Balloon Boy. Other animatronics include Foxy, Bonnie, and Chica.

The game starts while you are sitting in the office alone. You are not allowed to go out but keep watch using cameras placed outside. The animatronic figures will start to appear from 12 am until 6 am. You must keep them at bay as a new guard until 6 am.

The animatronics can access the office through the hallway and two air vents. You could seal these entrances in the Five Nights at Freddy's, but you can't in this version. You can use the head costume or mask to keep them at bay. But for Foxy, you use the flashlight and a Music box for Marionette.

The flashlight will also aid you in lighting the dark. You will need to press and hold on space to power on the flashlight. You move your camera with a mouse or joystick to get a clear view of every corner. When the battery power runs out, you become vulnerable to attack.

Balloon boy can also disable the lights if he gets access to the office. The game is over if you get jumpscares and fail to defend yourself. A minigame might also aid you in learning more about the plot.

The animatronics will become more intense and active as nights progress. The nights act as five levels in Five Nights at Freddy’s 2. You have to employ different strategies to control the animatronics and survive.

You can employ various strategies to survive at Five Night at Freddy's 2. The strategies will involve using various controls to keep watch using a camera, flashlight, or head costume to control the animatronics. Some of the strategies include:

1. Use Your Flashlight

You can use your flashlight to get a clear view of the dark areas, hallway, and air vents. The flashlight is the most effective to scare Foxy. It works by flashing it many times on Foxy. However, be careful to use it sparingly, or you will drain the battery.

2. Keep Watch of the Vents and Hallway.

Animatronics can access the office through the two vents or the hallway. The vents are located on your left and right. A button above the vents powers them on. You can also use the flashlight to get a clear view of the places.

3. Use Your Head Mask

The head mask is a hollow head of the Fazbear mascot. The head mask works best with many animatronics in the vents. However, the mask will not scare away Foxy and Marionette. A bang from the vents indicates you can safely take off the mask.

4. Use Your Camera

The camera will help you keep watch of the position of the animatronics. Cam 11 is the most essential in Five Nights at Freddy's 2. Cam 11 keeps watch of Marionette, the puppet. Cameras 5 and 6 are also crucial as they watch the vents.

5. Use Music Box in Cam 11

Cam 11 keeps watching Marionette, the puppet. Click on the Wind Up Music Box button to wind up music from your monitor to keep Marionette at bay. A circle next to the button will indicate if you need to re-wind. If the circle runs out, you risk an attack from Marionette.

6. Always be Quick

Take the shortest time possible to take action when an animatronic appears. An example, Freddy needs 1. 2 seconds for you to wear the mask.

Lastly, Five Nights at Freddy's is an interesting horror-themed game. Remember, each night will get harder than the previous one. It is time you try this game to experience thrilling nights of horror and fun.
