But after a while, their scaring tactics are not as effective and you start expecting them to show up.Īll in all, this could have been a better game if developers put some more thought into it. After a while, the animatronics figure out you are using the same hiding place and scare you out of your mind. However, I have to admit that I underestimated this game and thought that hiding at the same place will be wise. This means that lockers and under the desk space are the prime choices to hide whenever you see them coming. Animatronics won’t see you unless you are standing in front of them or if they hear you with their sharp hearing senses. The goal is to avoid them and examine the premises for clues and items, as well as notes that will tell you more about the situation you are in.
Wolf patrols the halls, Cat is sneaky and creeps out of vents while Owl keeps a watchful eye of your moves. In order to beat them, you need to get familiar with their mechanics. You will encounter three of them which have the shape of animals: Wolf, Cat, and Owl. You will be able to monitor security cameras from the tablet and thus find out where animatronic fiends are hiding. You duck and hide from scary robots and at the same time complete objectives. The gameplay is also pretty simple considering this is also a full-blown Steam game. And trust me, this is more than being a stickler for details. He doesn’t even try to walk out the front door which may be locked but is also made of glass. Instead of calling for backup, the detective simply accepts the situation and goes along with it like something like this happens all the time. Bishop was locked in the police station by a crazed man who also turned animatronics into murderous villains with an artificial intelligence he created. Now the game has a lot of loose ends that it doesn’t even bother to answer. This is unlike the Five Nights at Freddy’s since there you are limited to one room and number of surveillance cameras.
The goal is to survive the night while roaming free around the police station. In CASE: Animatronics, the players take the role of an experienced detective John Bishop who is trapped in the law enforcement department surrounded by killer animatronics. Most of those titles are made by fans who wanted to show how much they appreciate the original, and they were free to play. Due to its popularity, the game had many copycats over the years. You have probably heard of the Five Nights at Freddy’s, an iconic horror survival game with murderous animatronics.
