Jump into Five Nights at Freddy's 3 and face the horrors of the past. Can you survive again in this five-night loop? Let’s play and find out!
When you start Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 (FNaF 3), you’re greeted by a wannabe skater dude who gives you the rundown on your new gig. The game takes place 30 years after the original Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza closed down, and most people have forgotten about its creepy animatronics. A group of horror fans has built a new attraction inspired by the legend, and you’ve been hired as the night guard, not to protect, but to add to the atmosphere. Oddly enough, you're working before the attraction even opens to the public.
Your first night is uneventful, just a voice message, and then it's over. No scares, no action. But starting night two, the tension ramps up. Your employer uncovers old training tapes from the original pizzerias and starts playing them for you. They slowly unravel more of the twisted backstory, and from here on, things start to get real.
There are no doors to protect you here. Your only defenses are:
All of these systems can (and will) fail. Stay calm, reboot them quickly, and monitor the cameras wisely.
Each night, you’ll hear eerie cassette tapes describing the use of springlock suits and hidden rooms from the original locations. Meanwhile, Atari-style minigames let you dive into the darker parts of the Fazbear legacy, haunted children, a mysterious purple killer, and a chilling conclusion that may change the fate of the souls involved.
Depending on how deeply you explore, you’ll reach either the Good Ending or the Bad Ending, each shaping the final chapter of this haunted saga.
While both Five Nights at Freddy’s and 3 keep you up at night as a security guard, the gameplay and tone evolve drastically.
In FNaF, you work at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, managing limited power while checking security cameras, turning on lights, and shutting doors to block animatronics like Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy. Each animatronic behaves differently, and the tension builds with every passing night.
By contrast, FNaF 3 takes place 30 years later in a horror attraction called Fazbear’s Fright. You don’t have doors or lights, just a maintenance panel, cameras, and audio devices. The main threat is Springtrap, the only real animatronic, while others like Phantom Freddy or Chica are just hallucinations that disable your systems.
Story-wise, FNaF introduces the mystery behind haunted animatronics and missing children. FNaF 3 goes deeper, revealing secrets about hidden rooms, springlock suits, and the infamous killer, leading to two different endings based on how much lore you uncover.
In terms of fear, FNaF is all about jump scares and helplessness, while FNaF 3 leans more into psychological horror and survival through system management.
Both games are terrifying, but in very different ways.
Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 strips away your defenses and throws you into pure psychological horror. No place to hide, only your mind to rely on. Face the fear, follow the tapes, and uncover the truth lurking in the walls of Fazbear’s Fright.
