Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
72 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 builds on the terrifying foundation of the original game and elevates the horror experience to a whole new level.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
25 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a big jump in difficulty from FNAF 1, and it is definitely either first or a close second for the hardest base game (disregarding UCN).
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The animatronic cast is expanded with some of the strongest designs in the entire series being present, and the story is both explored with more depth and brought forward to the player directly through minigames.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sound design remains a standout feature, with eerie music box melodies, static-filled security footage, and chilling mechanical noises that amplify the tension.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
6 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sound design is also a downgrade in my opinion, though the visuals are as good as in the first game.
