Gameplay

Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Simulator has about 4 different game modes. The game automatically switches you from one game mode to the next.

First game mode

At the beginning of the game, you play as Freddy Fazbear who attempts to deliver several pizzas to children.

Second game mode

After playing the first game mode for a while, the game glitches and transfoms to a dark mode where you face an electronic animatronic. You are then instructed to observe the animatronic while recording the response of the animatronic to audio simulations. You tick a checklist according to the animatronic’s responses.

If the animatronic attempts to scare you, you can force it away with the use of a laser. But you must be careful not to use the taser too much as this decreases your overall profit. When you complete this game mode, you’ll be rewarded with cash. If you fail, you won’t get any cash. You can salvage the animatronic if you want to. You get new animatronics after the first four dayshifts within the game. The game feature the four animatronics in the series namely Lefty, Scrap Baby, William Afton and Molten Freddy.

Third game mode

The next game mode features a business simulation where you create a restaurant. You buy items that increase the worth of your restaurant and fetch you more money. But using these items in your restaurant have negative consequences that will lead to lawsuits. Fighting or losing a lawsuit will cost you money. You can also accept sponsorship offers for money, but the placement of the audio messages from these sponsorships will distract you in the next mode of the game.

Fourth game mode

The last mode of the game sees you maintaining the restaurant by using a computer to complete tasks like printing orders and sorting out maintenance schedules. The animatronics in the game will attempt to attack you. You can use audio or your flash light to scare them away. You can use motion detectors to track the movements of the animatronics.

Noise from audio recordings, the computer and the restaurant ventilation system can prevent you from guessing the correct position of the animatronics. You can choose alternating ventilation systems that are quieter but won’t be as effective in ventilating the restaurant. You can also upgrade the office equipment to silent ones but that will cost you more money. If you accept sponsorships you will gain more money, but the audio will attract the animatronics and make you unable to hear them.

After completing daily tasks and logging off the restaurant computer, the day ends. Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Simulator ends after six days and nights have been completed. You get a unique ending that varies according to how you played the game.
