The first FNaF fangame on Steam, huh. Popgoes Arcade has surpassed my expectations, yeah, it's kinda short, but it has so much love put into it Progression is amazing, you get new stuff each 5 minutes. You beat the boss? Here, new mechanic. You killed x enemies in this area? Here, have an item to make your exploration more enjoyable etc etc. It encourages the player to explore the gameworld. The soundtrack is also really good. Definitely the best OST coming from a FNaF Fangame overall. FIGHTING CHANCE UPDATE: The gifts definitely make the game less repetetive. During my second playthrough i felt like I was playing a different game. The new boss is also really cool, despite having one flaw that's extremely annoying - its huge pain doing a certain achievement, but it's still relatively bearable. The reward for beating the boss is also really cool. 9/10 . Taking one point for stealing our precious 100% completion badge from before the update lol. Buy the game, it's worth your money (+ You can support Kane Carter who can make more games in the future!)

I committed to a 200% run of the game after the launch of Fighting Chance, I feel inclined to write up my review for the game as, while I still greatly enjoyed the experience after a replay, I still have just a few small gripes with it even after the Fighting Chance update. The Fighting Chance update introduced a lot of interesting battle gimmicks yet during the fights it didn't particularly feel like the gimmicks contributed to much to the experience, especially the positive ones which I felt barely changed the fight what-so-ever. I really liked gimmicks like 'Reflex', 'Potential' and 'Slingshot' really did feel like game changers or small bit-sized challenges in the fight, Potential being a nice risk vs. reward requiring you to drain valuable HP, Reflex testing your reaction time or Slingshot just completely changing an entire ability to be something entirely new! Meanwhile, so many of the other Battle Gifts just feel like needlessly time wasting, boring or just felt like it didn't remotely do anything to change the fight, I could count on one hand how many times the Battle Gift 'Persistence' actually came into use, or other Gifts like 'Excavation', while changing an entire ability being a gimmick I had praised a bit ago, didn't feel like it did anything and I would typically just ignore trying to dig for the fight as the scrap I would recieve from the enemies would be a much more guaranteed reward than whatever Excavation could have given me. Same goes for 'Clumsiness' which I'm just remembering, because if Popgoes is already pretty stacked on health he can just take a charged attack with a block pretty well instead of needing to jump. I feel as though the Battle Gifts, especially the negative ones, should not be something the player just glosses over whenever they're unboxed, as I thought would be indicated via the game closing off the ability to run away, truly committing to the 'challenge', except thats what some of the abilities just ended up feeling like. That being said, I do adore the new boss added into the Fighting Chance update, their final attack is incredibly clever, my compliments to the chef because they really cooked with this boss fight (even if it is a bit RNG dependent) On a few unrelated notes, I think grinding is still a bit tedious even after the economy rebalancing but I felt as though it wasn't nearly as bad as before the update, I would also like to compliment being able to rematch the final boss from the Dead Forest but now that its a feature I kind of wished that every boss would get a rematch option, I would absolutely love to have a rematch option for the Secret Boss in the Machinist expansion or a rematch option for the other Bosses in the Dead Forest, also I would love full Steam Deck support! Over-all, I really did love the game, I wouldn't have done a 200% and have got all the achievements otherwise, and I look forward to Evergreen and future Popgoes projects! (I wouldn't mind another Arcade game)

Peak. Even though I haven't completed this new update's additions, it is very fun so far and all pre-Fighting Chance content was amazing.

Firstly, This game has some of the most incredible visual and audio designs I have ever seen in an RPG.The pixelated style of a retro game and the amazing soundtrack make for a great experience. Secondly, The turn based action in this game is just phenomenal.It is simple yet effective,transitioning seamlessly between encounters,without it feeling like a chore for the player. And lastly, Even if you are not particularly interested in the lore of the other FNaF games,it still is a great experience,with a story of its own.

Fantastically fun game, I enjoyed the hidden secrets and the color options you got to choose, especially the gilded one. I would definitely recommend this, even if certain parts felt a little grind-y (I played this three days in a row to beat it so that may be the reason why, but even still it wasn't too bad)
