Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic
Critic Reviews for Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic
FNAF: Secret of the Mimic is carried by the franchise, not the gameplay, but it’s still more FNAF, and that’s more than enough for fans. Lore, world-building, creepy animatronics—it’s all here, and with great graphical and performance optimization to boot. Just don’t expect more than that, and you’re Golden Freddy.
Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic is ultimately a game made for the fans, those who know their Springtraps from their Scraptraps, who've memorized the sound of a vented crawl from three rooms away. If you're one of them, you'll find enough here to keep your Faz-heart beating. And if not? Well… maybe this one's not your cup of Freddy Fazbear-branded tea.
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Secret of the Mimic sounds and looks great, creating a believable world and memorable character designs. If you liked Security Breach or want to see how FNAF’s story changes over time, Secret of the Mimic has some interesting parts that you should check out. However, people who prefer polished gameplay or a smooth horror experience may not like it. It seems like the game is stuck between the past and the future. It tries to be both a new take on the series and a classic FNAF game but fails in both areas.
