A new direction and a return to the classic horror roots that began the series serves as a reminder that these games can actually be a tense experience if they want to be. Doing away with the fluff that has shifted the focus, I enjoyed my time exploring these dense environments, when I could do so without interruption. Despite the clear passion and direction here, the experience of playing the game was far clunkier than it should have been, with some downright tragic bugs plaguing the experience during the review process. While I can see a great survival horror experience under the hood, I have to take into the account the issues that I had with the game. I really hope the team can address these in the coming days.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.psu.com\u002Freviews\u002Ffive-nights-at-freddys-into-the-pit-ps5-review\u002F","2024-09-30","6.5",65,{"id":68,"author":69,"outlet":71,"summary":77,"review_url":78,"review_date":79,"original_score":80,"normalized_score":81},64708,{"id":57,"name":70},"George Foster",{"id":72,"logo":73,"name":74,"website_url":75,"score_format":76},83,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FTheGamer-Logo.png","TheGamer","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thegamer.com\u002F","5","Into the Pit might be a short adventure, but its consistent scares and tense gameplay still make it the peak of the series.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thegamer.com\u002Ffive-nights-at-freddys-fnaf-into-the-pit-review\u002F","2024-08-16","4.0",80,{"id":83,"author":84,"outlet":87,"summary":92,"review_url":93,"review_date":48,"original_score":94,"normalized_score":95},56967,{"id":85,"name":86},4284,"Nat Collazo",{"id":88,"logo":89,"name":90,"website_url":91,"score_format":61},73,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FThe-Nerd-Stash-Logo.png","The Nerd Stash","https:\u002F\u002Fthenerdstash.com\u002F","An incredible adaptation of the eponymous short story that isn't without it's minute faults, making it one of the best installments to the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise.","https:\u002F\u002Fthenerdstash.com\u002Ffive-nights-at-freddys-into-the-pit-review-where-horror-meets-art\u002F","9",90,{"id":97,"author":98,"outlet":101,"summary":105,"review_url":106,"review_date":107,"original_score":61,"normalized_score":108},59585,{"id":99,"name":100},4817,"Brie Hoban",{"id":81,"logo":102,"name":103,"website_url":104,"score_format":61},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGame-Rant-Logo.png","Game Rant","https:\u002F\u002Fgamerant.com\u002F","Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit is both an exceptional addition to the Five Nights at Freddy’s franchise and a truly remarkable piece of retro-inspired horror.

While FNAF’s mainline titles move the story forward, balancing kid-friendly scares with a bleak and disturbing backstory, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit goes back to where it all began, immersing fans in the series’ darkest and most straightforward horror title to date.
