Five Nights at Epstein’s adapts the well-established survival horror mechanics of classic “five nights” titles, but adds faster pacing and multiple layers of system management. As players watch static camera feeds, track enemies movements, and respond to multiple threats at once. The main difficulty is in regulating your visibility, oxygen and system stability.
