Five Nights at Candy's 2

**Five Nights at Candy's 2** is the second installment in the Five Nights at Candy’s series. It takes place after the first game and was released on February 28, 2016. Despite being the second game in the franchise, Five Nights at Candy's 2 is actually chronologically the third game in the series, making it a sequel to Five nights at Candy's and Five Nights at Candy's 3.

## Summary

*Rebuilt. Enhanced. Upgraded.*
*We brought joy to many, but that was long ago.*
*Broken. Fractured. Damaged.*
*In the end, we ended up where we came from.*

Five Nights at Candy's 2 is centered around a 17 year old girl who loses a bet to friends and has to spend five nights in a factory that houses improved versions of the animatronics from the first game that are all broken and fractured. The girl must defend herself using security cameras and phones.

## Gameplay

A fan game of the popular Five Nights at Freddy's franchise, the gameplay is similar to that of Five Nights at Freddy's 3, where you must use noises to lure the animatronics away from you, or prevent them from getting into the vents, also by playing noises. Instead of being in The Office, you are instead placed in Rowboatics Corp. Factory in the Central Hall.

In addition, some phone icons are added that allow you to attract the animatronics, this works if they enter the vents or are close, if they keep them on for a long time, they can fail and you have to wait for them to work again. You can use a flash camera, which will allow you to see the long corridor in the background.

## Reception

Five Nights at Candy's 2 received generally positive reviews, with praise for the story and improved renders and animations compared to its predecessor. Despite this, some deemed it to be inferior to the first game, regarding its gameplay and mechanics.
