About this game
**Five Nights at Freddy's 3** is a survival horror game developed by Scott Cawthon, released in 2015. Set thirty years after the closure of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, players assume the role of a night security guard at "Fazbear's Fright: The Horror Attraction," a venue designed to capitalize on the infamous events of the past. The primary antagonist is Springtrap, a deteriorated animatronic that players must monitor and manage to survive their shifts.
The game introduces a unique mechanic where players utilize security cameras and audio devices to track and lure Springtrap away from their office. Additionally, "phantom" versions of previous animatronics, such as Freddy, Chica, and Foxy, appear as hallucinations that can disrupt systems and increase the challenge. Maintaining the functionality of cameras, audio, and ventilation systems is crucial, as failures can lead to increased vulnerability.
For fans of horror-themed games, titles like [Granny](/class/Granny) and [Backrooms](/class/Backrooms) offer similarly suspenseful experiences. Additionally, [Five Nights At Freddy's Pizzeria Simulator](/class/Five-Nights-At-Freddys-Pizzeria-Simulator) provides further exploration into the franchise's lore and gameplay mechanics.
As of August 30, 2025, the game received an update (version 2.0.3) that reverted the office panning speed to its original setting and included minor fixes, enhancing the overall gameplay experience.
