'''''Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location''''' is a ] ] ] created by ]. It is the fifth game in the ]. The game was released on October 7, 2016. A mobile port for Android devices was released on December 22, 2016, with an iOS port planned to be released later on. '''''Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location''''' is a 2016 ] ] video game developed and published by ]. It is the fifth main installment in the '']'' series and the sixth game overall. Set at a sister location of Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria called Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental, players control a new employee who must perform maintenance work while defending themselves from a set of murderous ]. The gameplay in ''Sister Location'' differs significantly from the previous ''Five Nights at Freddy's'' games in that it grants players mobility between rooms where tasks are completed.

Cawthon teased the game in April 2016 with the tagline "there was never just one". Following a trailer released in May, it was released on ] on October 7, 2016, on December 22 of the same year on ], and on January 3 of the following year on ]. It received mixed reviews, with praise for its voice performances and criticism for some aspects of its gameplay. A sequel, '']'', was released on December 4, 2017. Ports for ], ], and ] were released in 2020.
''Sister Location'' distances itself from several key gameplay and storytelling mechanics used in previous games, instead featuring walking access to any area in the game, each with its own differing objective the player must carry out. Throughout the game, the player interacts with a new cast of ] characters, central to which is a seemingly benevolent animatronic named Circus Baby.

The bulk of the gameplay in ''Sister Location'' does away with the ] aspect of previous games. Instead of remaining in one place and preventing the ] antagonists from attacking, the player must move from room to room in order to fulfill a series of objectives that change during each of the five nights. For example, Night 2 requires the player to sneak across a dark auditorium and reset a group of circuit breakers, while for Night 4, the player is placed inside a costume suit and must keep its spring locks wound up while shaking off the Minireenas that climb onto it.

''Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location'' is a survival horror video game.<ref name=VG247/> The player controls Mike, a late-night technician for the animatronic rental company Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental. The ] must complete five shifts, called "nights", without being caught by the animatronics that become mobile and homicidal at night.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Gelmini |first=David |date=2016-08-08 |title=Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location Launching in October; New Plot Details Released |url=https://www.dreadcentral.com/news/181736/five-nights-freddys-sister-location-launching-october-new-plot-details-released/ |access-date=2023-03-05 |website=] |language=en-US}}</ref>
As in '']'', when a game ends, the player may be given a chance to play an 8-bit minigame, in which Circus Baby must give cupcakes to children and then bring an ice cream cone to a little girl. Completing this minigame grants access to a secret level during Night 5, a near-recreation of the gameplay in the original '']''. Here, the player remains in a security office and must prevent a hybrid animatronic called "Ennard" from entering it by watching surveillance cameras and closing electric doors, all of which consume a limited power supply.


Though it continues the series's ] format, ''Sister Location'' introduces a more dynamic gameplay environment. Players use crawlspaces to move between the facility's rooms—Primary Control Module, Funtime Auditorium, Circus Control, and Ballora Gallery—to complete tasks.<ref name=VG247>{{Cite web |last=Oxford |first=Nadia |date=2016-10-14 |title=Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location - Guide, Tips, and Walkthrough |url=https://www.vg247.com/five-nights-at-freddys-sister-location-guide-tips-and-walkthrough |access-date=2023-03-05 |website=] |language=en}}</ref><ref name=":1"/> Each night concludes when the assigned tasks are completed rather than surviving a set timeframe against the animatronics.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Herrick |first=Langdon |date=October 27, 2016 |title=Local voice actor's first stab at horror game is scarily successful |url=https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/entertainment_life/local-voice-actors-first-stab-at-horror-game-is-scarily-successful/article_a9c48ca0-963b-11e6-b52e-c7fea30b5818.html |access-date=March 5, 2023 |website=]}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Derek Russell |first=W. |date=June 4, 2018 |title=Zombies, 'Avengers,' '5 Nights at Freddy's': Ex-teacher finds new voice |url=https://www.clarionledger.com/story/magnolia/2018/06/04/andy-field-does-voices-commercials-computer-games-roles-tv/614392002/ |access-date=March 5, 2023 |website=]}}</ref> In addition to a company-issued ] voice named HandUnit, a variety of tools are available to the player to navigate the rooms and subdue the animatronics. For example, players use an elevated control pad on night one to light a room and shock the animatronics, and on night three, a flash ] is used to navigate Funtime Auditorium and avoid its animatronic, Funtime Foxy.<ref name=VG247/><ref name=destructoid/>
Clearing all five nights unlocks a gallery of extra features: pictures and blueprints of the game's animatronics, their ], a map of the facility and automatic access to Circus Baby's cupcake minigame. As of the December 1, 2016 update, clearing all nights also unlocks the non-canon Custom Night mode, which is set in a modified version of the Night 5 secret room. The player can choose from several modes and difficulty settings, facing new animatronics, and must conserve both power and oxygen supplies in order to survive. Completing these modes allows the player to view a series of cutscenes that have been declared as part of the series canon; all except the last scene are in 8-bit resolution.


As with all ''Five Nights at Freddy's'' games, failing to defend oneself from the animatronics results in a ], causing a ]. However, in this game, the animatronics do not actively pursue the player; instead, a jumpscare occurs if the assigned tasks are not completed correctly. If the player dies, there is a chance for them to enter an ]-style ] minigame, reminiscent to the post-death minigames in '']'', where the player acts as Circus Baby delivering cupcakes to children. Completing this minigame in a specific manner unlocks a secret level on the fifth night that reintroduces the immobile survival aspect of the original '']''.<ref name="GameCrate"/> Completing all five nights unlocks additional features, including a "Custom Night" mode,<ref name="Gamezebo"/> where the player selects from various modes and difficulty settings and tries to survive the night against a new set of animatronics.<ref name=TouchArcade/>
An achievement system exists in the form of four stars, obtained by unlocking both of the game's endings, completing the Circus Baby minigame, and completing the hardest mode on the custom night.

Both companies are owned by a certain ]-accented individual called Mr. Afton. It is also implied in the source code of teasers for the game that both locations are part of a robotics company going by the name of "Afton Robotics".
Mike<!-- Mike is not confirmed to be Michael Afton by the game. --> is hired by Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental, an underground facility storing animatronics from the closed Circus Baby's Pizza World. The facility's AI, HandUnit, greets Mike each night and assigns him maintenance tasks. On the first night, everything runs smoothly: using elevated control pads, Mike checks on and, if necessary, administers electric shocks to the three animatronics—Ballora, Funtime Foxy, and Circus Baby—to ensure they remain active, before leaving. On the second night, the power goes out, the animatronics come to life, and Circus Baby warns Mike of the danger posed by the other animatronics. She instructs him across Ballora Gallery and assists him in resetting the ]s.<ref name="VG247" /> On the third night, after performing maintenance work on Funtime Freddy, Mike is attacked by Funtime Foxy. Circus Baby places him in a "springlock suit", an animatronic that can also be worn as a suit by retracting its mechanics into its lining, for his protection. On the fourth night, Mike must escape the suit while repelling tiny ballerina animatronics called Minireenas.<ref name="destructoid" /><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.vg247.com/five-nights-at-freddys-sister-location-how-to-survive-night-4-in-the-springtrap-suit|website=]|title=Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location - How to Survive Night 4 in the Springtrap Suit|last=Oxford|first=Nadia|date=October 14, 2016|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20240521180647/https://www.vg247.com/five-nights-at-freddys-sister-location-how-to-survive-night-4-in-the-springtrap-suit|archivedate=May 21, 2024}}</ref>


On the fifth night, Mike discovers two hanged technicians in the location where the animatronics should be, preventing HandUnit from detecting their absence. Circus Baby directs Mike to dismantle her empty shell in the Scooping Room, where the animatronics' endoskeletons are extracted by a machine called the Scooper, explaining that this is necessary to "save what is good so the rest can be destroyed". However, she warns him that he is being pursued by the animatronic Ballora, who intends to kill him. Between nights, Mike watches an animated sitcom at home.<ref name="kotaku"/><ref name=":1"/>
Mike is instructed by HandUnit (an ] that helps the player throughout the game) to watch and 'motivate' the animatronics by electrocuting them so they may be used during the day. He is also guided by the voice of Circus Baby, a female, clown-like, animatronic and the star of Circus Baby's Pizza World, who gives instructions sometimes contradictory to those of HandUnit. Baby's instructions help Mike survive the nights from the hostile animatronics: the ballerina Ballora and her minions known as Minireenas; miniature animatronics known as Bidybabs; and 'Funtime' versions of Freddy Fazbear and Foxy the Pirate Fox. It is implied via monologues throughout the game, as well as the ending of the 8-bit-style minigame, that Circus Baby houses the remains of Mr. Afton's daughter, who was previously killed by her in a freak accident.<ref>{{cite video game| title = Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location| developer = Scott Cawthon | publisher = | date = October 7, 2016| platform = ]| scene = Night 3 dialogue| quote = '''Baby:''' Did you know that I was on stage once? It wasn’t for very long, only one day. What a wonderful day, though. I was in a small room with balloons and a few tables. No-one sat at the tables, though, but children would run in and out. Some where afraid of me, others enjoyed my songs. Music was always coming from somewhere else down the hall. I would always count the children, I’m not sure why. I was always acutely aware of how many there were in the room with me. Two, then three, then two, then three, then four, then two, then none. They usually played together in groups of two or three. I was covered in glitter. I smelled like birthday cake. There were two, then three, then five, then four. I can do something special, did you know that? I can make ice cream, although I only did it once. There were four, then three, then two, then one. Something happend when there was one. A little girl, standing by herself. I was no longer myself. And I stopped singing. My stomach opened and there was ice cream. I couldn’t move at least, not until she stepped closer. There was screaming for a moment, but only for a moment. Then other children rushed in again, but they couldn’t hear her over the sounds of their own excitement. I still hear her sometimes. Why did that happen?}}</ref>


===Endings===
In between nights, the voice of a young British Girl, whom is presumably Mr. Afton's daughter, is overheard, asking her father if she can go and play with Circus Baby. This further elaborated on during Baby's third night speech and the mini game, both of which imply the girl went against her father's wishes.
The game has two endings. If Mike follows Circus Baby's instructions, he finds all animatronics have been gutted by the Scooper. Circus Baby's voice is revealed to be Ennard, an amalgam of the animatronics, who uses the Scooper to eviscerate Mike and disguise itself in his skin.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cbr.com/horror-video-games-darkest-deaths/|title=10 Darkest Deaths in Horror Games|first=Amber|last=Frost|website=]|date=February 11, 2023 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20230212074148/https://www.cbr.com/horror-video-games-darkest-deaths/|archivedate=February 12, 2023}}</ref> The other ending is unlocked when the player completes the post-death minigame in a certain manner:<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.gamezebo.com/walkthroughs/five-nights-freddys-sister-location-walkthrough/|title=Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location Walkthrough|date=January 3, 2017|first=Rob|last=Rich|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20230614122253/https://www.gamezebo.com/walkthroughs/five-nights-freddys-sister-location-walkthrough/|archivedate=June 14, 2023|website=Gamezebo}}</ref> upon success, Circus Baby extends a claw from her stomach and pulls in and kills a girl, presumed to be Elizabeth, whose soul possesses the animatronic.

Two sets of cutscenes may play if the player completes different modes of the Custom Night.

As the week passes, the animatronics are taken to the Parts and Service room one by one due to apparent malfunction. At the end of the third night, Circus Baby reveals that she kidnapped Mike, and on the fourth night, hides him in a spring lock suit just outside the "scooping room", where the animatronics' ]s are forcibly removed by a machine Circus Baby refers to as "The Scooper" (designed in a way similar to an ]), and has Mike watch as the machine tears Ballora's endoskeleton out. On the final night, two agents sent to fix the animatronics are found hanged in the Ballora and Funtime auditoriums, respectively. After reaching the Parts and Service room, Mike is told by Circus Baby to take her to the scooping room. From there, Mike can heed Circus Baby's instruction and obtain the normal ending, or sidetrack to the hidden "private room" and get into the alternate ending after completing Circus Baby's minigame, where the player needs to clear a survival mission modeled after the first game for the alternate ending.


==Release and reception==
In the normal ending, after entering the scooping room, Circus Baby, who is now the consciousness of Ennard (an animatronic formed out of the other animatronics), reveals that she and the other animatronics have been attempting to escape the complex, but without a human guise, they are unable to. However, now that they have met a sympathetic human, i.e. Mike, they have merged into a single animatronic called Ennard to take his body. Ennard then locks Mike inside the scooping room and uses the machine to disembowel him and take his body. The final scene of the game's canon area shows Ennard inspecting itself in the mirror while inhabiting Mike's body.

In the alternate ending, after surviving inside the security office, Mike escapes to his home and watches the season finale of the animated series ''The Immortal and the Restless'' (whose previous episodes are shown in-between the nights and whose plot lampoons the series). After the show ends, however, Ennard appears in the room and slowly advances towards Mike. This ending has been confirmed as non-canon.{{citation needed|date=December 2016}}<!-- Unless there is a verifiable explanation of the secret ending's events from Scott Cawthon or anyone closely associated with the game, it WILL be removed. -->


The gameplay of ''Sister Location'' garnered mixed reviews.

Completing the various Custom Night modes on the hardest difficulty setting unlocks a set of 8-bit cutscenes that have been confirmed as being canonical. These scenes show Ennard walking down the block disguised in Mike's skin - appearing normal at first, but gradually decaying and deteriorating from one scene to the next. Neighbors initially wave to him, but later become concerned and hide as Mike's outward appearance worsens. In the last of these scenes, Mike vomits Ennard into the sewer and collapses, presumably due to the lack of innards. However, he rises to his feet again as Ennard repeatedly says, "You won't die."


Beyond the gameplay, critics have praised the atmosphere. Many have particularly highlighted the quality of the voice acting.

In August, a teaser image was posted on Cawthon's website with the words "Cancelled. Due to Leaks." This was initially taken to indicate that the game itself had been cancelled, due to one of the game's animatronics' voices being leaked, namely Ballora's. However, it was quickly revealed to be a part of the story line, as a fictional news article was found when the image was brightened, discussing how the in-game location had been closed due to "gas" leaks.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mobilenapps.com/articles/17660/20160829/five-nights-at-freddys-sister-location-cancelled-release-date-2016.htm|title='Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location' Far From Cancelled; True Release Date October 7, 2016 Revealed|last=de Lacy|first=C.|date=August 29, 2016|website=Mobile & Apps|publisher=|access-date=2016-09-01}}</ref>

On October 4, 2016, Cawthon posted on the Steam Community forums, stating that the game has a very dark story line, and that it might not be kid-friendly. For this, he said that he might work on the game for several more months, to make the game and its story more suitable for younger players,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://kotaku.com/five-nights-at-freddys-creator-gives-worst-reason-for-p-1787410638|title=Five Nights at Freddy's Creator Gives Worst Reason For Possible Delay |last=Hernandez|first=Patricia|date=October 4, 2016|work=Kotaku|access-date=2016-10-07}}</ref> which, however, turned out to be a hoax.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cinemablend.com/games/1563960/why-five-nights-at-freddys-sister-location-has-to-be-delayed-kind-of|title=Why Five Nights At Freddy's Sister Location Has To Be Delayed...

Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location is a 2016 point-and-click survival horror video game developed and published by Scott Cawthon. It is the fifth main installment in the Five Nights at Freddy's series and the sixth game overall. Set at a sister location of Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria called Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental, players control a new employee who must perform maintenance work while defending themselves from a set of murderous animatronics. The gameplay in Sister Location differs significantly from the previous Five Nights at Freddy's games in that it grants players mobility between rooms where tasks are completed.

Cawthon teased the game in April 2016 with the tagline "there was never just one". Following a trailer released in May, it was released on Steam on October 7, 2016, on December 22 of the same year on Android, and on January 3 of the following year on iOS. It received mixed reviews, with praise for its voice performances and criticism for some aspects of its gameplay. A sequel, Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator, was released on December 4, 2017. Ports for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 were released in 2020.

Gameplay

A screenshot showcasing the Primary Control Module

Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location is a survival horror video game. The player controls Mike, a late-night technician for the animatronic rental company Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental. The player character must complete five shifts, called "nights", without being caught by the animatronics that become mobile and homicidal at night.

Though it continues the series's point-and-click format, Sister Location introduces a more dynamic gameplay environment. Players use crawlspaces to move between the facility's rooms—Primary Control Module, Funtime Auditorium, Circus Control, and Ballora Gallery—to complete tasks. Each night concludes when the assigned tasks are completed rather than surviving a set timeframe against the animatronics. In addition to a company-issued AI voice named HandUnit, a variety of tools are available to the player to navigate the rooms and subdue the animatronics. For example, players use an elevated control pad on night one to light a room and shock the animatronics, and on night three, a flash beacon is used to navigate Funtime Auditorium and avoid its animatronic, Funtime Foxy.

As with all Five Nights at Freddy's games, failing to defend oneself from the animatronics results in a jumpscare, causing a game over. However, in this game, the animatronics do not actively pursue the player; instead, a jumpscare occurs if the assigned tasks are not completed correctly. If the player dies, there is a chance for them to enter an Atari-style platformer minigame, reminiscent to the post-death minigames in Five Nights at Freddy's 2, where the player acts as Circus Baby delivering cupcakes to children. Completing this minigame in a specific manner unlocks a secret level on the fifth night that reintroduces the immobile survival aspect of the original Five Nights at Freddy's. Completing all five nights unlocks additional features, including a "Custom Night" mode, where the player selects from various modes and difficulty settings and tries to survive the night against a new set of animatronics.

Plot

Mike is hired by Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental, an underground facility storing animatronics from the closed Circus Baby's Pizza World. The facility's AI, HandUnit, greets Mike each night and assigns him maintenance tasks. On the first night, everything runs smoothly: using elevated control pads, Mike checks on and, if necessary, administers electric shocks to the three animatronics—Ballora, Funtime Foxy, and Circus Baby—to ensure they remain active, before leaving. On the second night, the power goes out, the animatronics come to life, and Circus Baby warns Mike of the danger posed by the other animatronics. She instructs him across Ballora Gallery and assists him in resetting the circuit breakers. On the third night, after performing maintenance work on Funtime Freddy, Mike is attacked by Funtime Foxy. Circus Baby places him in a "springlock suit", an animatronic that can also be worn as a suit by retracting its mechanics into its lining, for his protection. On the fourth night, Mike must escape the suit while repelling tiny ballerina animatronics called Minireenas.

On the fifth night, Mike discovers two hanged technicians in the location where the animatronics should be, preventing HandUnit from detecting their absence. Circus Baby directs Mike to dismantle her empty shell in the Scooping Room, where the animatronics' endoskeletons are extracted by a machine called the Scooper, explaining that this is necessary to "save what is good so the rest can be destroyed". However, she warns him that he is being pursued by the animatronic Ballora, who intends to kill him. Between nights, Mike watches an animated sitcom at home.

Endings

The game has two endings. If Mike follows Circus Baby's instructions, he finds all animatronics have been gutted by the Scooper. Circus Baby's voice is revealed to be Ennard, an amalgam of the animatronics, who uses the Scooper to eviscerate Mike and disguise itself in his skin. The other ending is unlocked when the player completes the post-death minigame in a certain manner: upon success, Circus Baby extends a claw from her stomach and pulls in and kills a girl, presumed to be Elizabeth, whose soul possesses the animatronic. Subsequently, the player can defy Circus Baby's instructions by entering a private room, where they must fend off Ennard, angered by the player's defiance, until 6 AM. Afterwards, Mike returns home to find that Ennard has followed him.

Two sets of cutscenes may play if the player completes different modes of the Custom Night. If the player survives the hardest difficulty, Ennard abandons Mike's discolored and decomposed body and leaves him near death. Meanwhile, if the player completes "Golden Freddy" mode, the cutscenes show the ruins of a burnt-down Fazbear's Fright, where Mike speaks to his father, William Afton, the murderer mentioned in previous games. Disfigured and "living in shadows", Mike recounts that William manipulated him into freeing "her", prompting the animatronics to attack him, mistaking him for his father. With no other options, Mike resolves to find his father.

Developer Scott Cawthon had previously stated that Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (2015) would be the final game in the series. However, he announced Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location on his website in April 2016 with the tagline, "There was never just one". A trailer was uploaded online on May 21. On October 7, Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location was released on Steam. Due to user complaints about the difficulty of night four, a patch was released to alleviate its difficulty. Downloadable content was later added for a non-canon Custom Night. Ports for Android and iOS were released by Clickteam on December 22, 2016 and January 3, 2017, respectively. Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 ports were released on June 18, 2020; July 10, 2020; and July 21, 2020; respectively.

Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location received "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator site Metacritic. Aggregate site OpenCritic calculated that only 20% of critics recommended the game. Some have said that the game marked a significant advancement in the series' production quality, with Patricia Hernandez of Kotaku calling it Cawthon's "most ambitious game yet".

The gameplay of Sister Location garnered mixed reviews. Kotaku highlighted that the game features a voice that directs players through gameplay rather than leaving players to decipher mechanics themselves like in previous installments, and The A.V. Club and Destructoid praised the increased mobility and individual objectives, with the latter describing the different tasks as leading to "some fantastic moments and genuinely spooky scenarios." However, reviewers criticized the game's difficulty. Some found it to be too easy, while others argued that it is overly challenging. GameCrate's Angelo M. D'Arengio wrote that every night "ends up being its own tutorial and level one before being quickly discarded", arguing that the challenge is diminished after some trial-and-error. Conversely, Nic Rowen of Destructoid argued that while "Sister Location keeps things moving and delivers fresh thrills throughout the entire work week", its pacing in terms of difficulty is what obstructs other aspects of the game from excelling. Specifically, they pointed out that night four is a "massive roadblock", seemingly intended to pad out the game's length rather than enhance the experience.

Beyond the gameplay, critics have praised the atmosphere. Many have particularly highlighted the quality of the voice acting. GameCrate felt that the addition of voices to fit the animatronics enhanced the scare factor, stating that the animatronics "don’t seem like mindless death machines anymore. They are intelligent. They know who you are, and they can manipulate you." William Hughes of The A.V. Club agreed, emphasizing Heather Masters's portrayal of Circus Baby. However, opinions on the game's use of humor were more divided. While GameCrate, The A.V. Club, and Kotaku found the humor to be a sound addition to the game—with the first arguing that it helped calm the player for a more intense subsequent jumpscare—Destructoid felt that most of the attempts at humor detracted from the atmosphere, suspecting they were included in service of merchandising.
