Cabin Fever 2: The End is an upcoming point-and-click survival horror game created by EpicTagey Games, the true finale to the FNaWniverse series, and the sequel to FNaW: Cabin Fever. Currently, a demo version is available. The game is available only on GameJolt.com.

## Description

Like Chapter 2, the game takes place after the events of Cabin Fever during an apocalypse of incredibly hostile entities created by an (currently) unseen watcher. The player takes the role of Carlos (shortened in The End to Carl) as he is trapped in his home, attempting to survive the barrage and hopefully find out what happened to his daughter.

The game works much differently compared to the other FNaWniverse games. The End has the player switch between two different play styles. One being Exploration, the other being Survival. Exploration has the player freely roam the house using the W, A, S, and D keys. They must follow an objective that changes depending on the night. Once this is completed, the player moves onto the Survival segment. This segment is more similar to classic FNaF styled gameplay. The player is locked to one room and must use security cameras and other mechanisms to survive. A Breaker is present which must be charged to avoid losing power to the house.

The game's color theme is orange, opposed to Cabin Fever's blue theme.

## Reception

As the game is currently only playable in demo form, not much feedback can be given on the game as a whole. As it stands, players have reacted rather positively to the demo. Some criticisms have been made with a majority of them already being fixed. For example, Bowser's eye tentacles were criticized for looking very poorly drawn. These have been removed from his design.

Something related to the original Chapter 2 was teased to appear in the game.

Characters have been revealed via Government Broadcasts and the game's banner and thumbnail. The Giant has been fully revealed. He's similar to his Chapter 2 appearance, however dirtier, more buff, and with rips in his clothes. Two large unknown entities each with a giant glowing eye are at either side of The Giant in the thumbnail. In an older thumbnail, two entities were shaded out at either side of The Giant. One seemed to be Birdo, the other seemed to be a 3D modeled Katie. In a gameplay screenshot, a version of Wario was shown, but only a side profile. He has a small white eye with a black pupil and sharp teeth. He was also seen in the 3rd Government Issued Broadcast, but this was a front profile. One of his eyes appear normal and the teeth only take up one side of his face. He was revealed to be The Slammer.

Four picture teasers were shown for the game. One depicts Luigi with the phrase "IT'S SCREWING WITH MY MIND", Luigi appears similar to his usual self, though with a fully green mouth and eyes and a glitchy texture. The second teaser depicts an entity that appears to be Mario from FNaW: High Rollers with the phrase "WHAT LIES IN THE DARKNESS WON'T STAY IN THE DARKNESS", Mario appears like he did in High Rollers, but most notably with one large eye with a black pupil. The third picture teaser depicts a chainsaw being held up by Birdo with the phrase "ALL YOU CAN DO IS RUN", only Birdo's hands can be seen, which are wrapped in bandages and covered in holes, and the chainsaw is stained with blood. The fourth picture teaser depicts two hands connected by long spine-like extensions with the phrase "MY ARMS ARE EVERYWHERE", referencing a teaser from FNaW: Origins.

A very dark image was posted to the GameJolt page with text on the devlog saying "Almost There", indicating the game is near completion. Upon brightening the image, a version of Luigi can be seen. This Luigi seemingly references the Red Mist/Squidward's Suicide creepypasta.

One of the GameJolt banner sfor The End depicts multiple characters. On the right are silhouettes of Bowser, Security Yoshi, and Birdo. On the left are silhouettes of Luigi, Mario, and Waluigi (revealed to be The Skewer). In the middle of the banner, Slammer's hand is raised, doing a V sign pose meant to symbolize the 2 in the game's title. Three eyes are present in the banner, belonging to the unnamed God characters.

At the end of the 2 Night Demo, a brief real-life monochrome image of the developer, Tagey, is shown. It's an image of him seen often on his YouTube thumbnails, though slightly off, as his smile is wider and one of his eyes are slanted. Afterwards, the game crashes.

A final GameJolt banner was added to the game page. This one depicts Katie up front, but with a ghostly version behind her. Also behind her are Bowser, Slammer, Wraith, an unnamed Luigi entity, a silhouette of Birdo, and a silhouette of one of the arms seen in the 4th teaser. The Luigi seen is the same one as the one from the very first teaser for the game. Bowser's updated design can be seen without the tentacle extremities.

Not much is known about the story, but just like Chapter 2, it takes place in an apocalyptic setting where an army of distorted entities are rampaging through the world. The rampage has started in the city Katie and Carlos live in. As shown through Government Broadcasts, alot of the entities seem to appear and act the same. The story will also primarily focus on Katie and Carlos attempting to find a way to stop the apocalypse, otherwise known as the End of Days.

During the 2 Night Demo, the first Cutscene depicts three different characters speaking to each other. Each three characters are represented by eyes, these characters being the Gods, who were previously mentioned in GameJolt devlogs and videos. It is not fully known what purpose they serve, though the cutscene reveals they are looking for a way to stop the apocalypse.

1. Cabin Fever 2: The End is the first game in the FNaWniverse collection to be a direct sequel to a previous game in the collection.
2. The game's Main Theme music references FNaW: Remastered 2016 during the first 15 seconds. Part of the reason is because Tagey adores the main theme from that game.
3. The game shares the tagline "You Won't Believe How it Ends" with the movie SAW V.
4. The End's color scheme being orange instead of blue is a direct contrast to the cold and isolated theme of Cabin Fever, using orange to instead fit fire and apocalypse.
5. An image depicting Mario as Michael Myers was posted to the game page. The image is named "Cabin Fever Ends Lol", in reference to the 2022 movie Halloween Ends.
6. The 2 Night Demo is the first time a demo for a FNaWniverse game was released since the first version of FNaW: High Rollers.
7. The Exploration segments are somewhat inspired by FNaW: Origins, but are primarily inspired by random indie horror games found on sites like GameJolt and itch.io which typically give the player objectives to follow while events periodically happen.
8. The usage of realistic images edited into the character designs is likely inspired by Five Shows at Wario's, which uses the same concept.
9. While the other FNaWniverse games used Times New Roman as the primary font type, Cabin Fever 2: The End instead uses Verdana, making it the first game in the series to use a different primary font type.
