A pixel art retro RPG spinoff of a horror franchise that's every bit as cool as it sounds.

P.S. - Still not going to Freddy's. Even if I haven't had a pizza in 3 years.

P.P.S. - When Is FNAF gonna do a "survivor-like" game?

I used to hate popgoes (2016) and everything about it but getting to replay these games has shown me that Kane and his team really know how to put together an experience and I'm glad it's in the fanverse, cause that means we get more variety of games which is nice, looking forwards to popgoes evergreen here's to it being the best it can be!

I am not a popgoes hater anymore I am a popgoes lover #Iheartthatweasel

This game is absolutely incredible, and is my favorite Five Nights at Freddy's game (with Kane Carter's other title, myPOPGOES, being a close second).

Popgoes Arcade is one of the only FNaF titles that actually gets into the characters and their personalities and treats them as actual, proper characters, instead of treating them as just animatronics. The story the game is telling the player is also an incredibly good one and is rife with secrets, implications and details that expand past a typical playthough.

Aside from the characters, the game is also very fun! I originally played the free "demo" the game had back when it was just The Dead Forest, and quickly bought the game after to experience The Machinist DLC the next day. It has improved so much since its initial release with Fighting Chance and Wrapped Up expanding on the base game and making it that much more interesting!

10/10, worth the purchase and I need a sequel.

I recommend this game to almost anybody willing to give it a shot. It’s an excellent slow burner that gets you at the right time with its scares while providing incredible rewards for beating challenging foes. Now it does particularly get slow during the start of the machinist but it rapidly increases in fun value shortly after. Popgoes Arcade easily gives any mainline fnaf game a run for their money and you wish I was kidding.

Extremely fun and challenging at times, I highly recommend playing to 200% completion before Evergreen comes out.

I am writing this at 3:00 AM after having finally gotten all the achievements, and this is what I have to say:

This is the only FNAF-related media that I genuinely love. I am not a FNAF fan, but unlike other games in the franchaise, this is an actual game and it's actually good. Very well-made and it impressed me a lot. Fangames keep winning.

That being said, there are some complaints I have, namely:
Progressing the game REQUIRES a huge amount of boring grinding at certain points. It artificially inflates playtime quite a lot. Normally I don't mind grindy games, but in most games grinding is optional... at least somewhat. But in this game, it's literally required. Feels kinda bad.
