Five Nights At Freddys 3

Five Nights At Freddys 3 puts players back in the security office, this time in a horror attraction that’s built around the legend of the haunted pizzeria. You’re hired to monitor the building at night, unaware that one animatronic, Springtrap, is active—and extremely dangerous. This game introduces a single true threat, combined with a host of visual and audio hallucinations that serve to disorient and mislead.

New Setting, Familiar Fear

Unlike previous entries, Five Nights At Freddys 3 is set in Fazbear’s Fright, a horror exhibit inspired by past events. You control a security system with limited tools, monitoring cameras and playing audio cues to lure Springtrap away. The goal remains the same—survive five nights—but this time, success depends more on resource juggling and less on door control.

• Camera system lets you track Springtrap’s movements across different rooms.
• Audio device plays a child’s laugh to lure Springtrap into other areas.
• Ventilation and system errors require constant attention and quick rebooting.

Springtrap vs. Illusions

The core threat in Five Nights At Freddys 3 is Springtrap, the only real animatronic who can physically reach and kill the player. However, multiple hallucinations appear as jumpscares, including Phantom Freddy, Phantom Foxy, and others. These phantoms don’t directly cause death but disrupt your systems, giving Springtrap the opportunity to move closer unnoticed.

• Phantom animatronics trigger if you stare too long or switch cameras carelessly.
• System errors increase vulnerability and must be manually rebooted.
• Springtrap’s behavior can be delayed by using strategic audio placement.

Managing the Security Panel

Your only defense is the control panel, where you manage three systems: audio, camera, and ventilation. Errors happen frequently—especially when phantom animatronics appear—and ignoring these problems will result in blackout or death. Knowing when to check cameras versus when to reboot is a constant challenge, and successful players keep Springtrap at a distance by staying ahead of breakdowns.

Five Nights At Freddys 3 changes the formula by focusing on one true enemy and a variety of distractions. The game rewards players who pay close attention to subtle cues and balance system management with spatial awareness across the attraction’s layout.
