FNAF 5: Sister Location – When FNAF Became More Sci-Fi
Five Nights at Freddy’s 5, also known as Sister Location, was the first time the series started to take more of a sci-fi direction, with sleek, shiny robots that could open their faceplates to reveal an endoskeleton made of noodly metal cables.

Struggling Through the Dead Cells Game Trial
Nintendo Switch Online users were granted a free game trial of Dead Cells at the end of January, a game I had on my wishlist, but had never really looked into very much. You see, I had heard good things about it and wanted to place it in my list to remember for later, but…
Analyzing the Secret of the Mimic Trailer
At last, some official footage for the upcoming Five Nights at Freddy’s game, Secret of the Mimic, has been revealed.

The Iron Rig DLC has finally been released for Dredge, which adds an oil rig to the northern portion of your map and a whole new story and cast of characters.

Last week, we looked to the past, discussing our top games from 2024. Now, it’s time to look forward and list the most exciting upcoming releases (alongside one obligatory entry that I keep including for some reason). Unlike last year, 2025 looks like a pretty exciting year for gamers, with a variety of horror games…
The Duck’s 2024 GOTY – FNAF: Into the Pit
As we do every year, it’s about time we chose our top game released in 2024! Okay, so here’s the thing…I don’t usually play games until long after their release. So I literally have one option for Game of the Year for 2024, and that is Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit. Fortunately, I…
