About

The classic Five Nights at Freddy’s fan-game returns, rebuilt from the ground up to offer a modern and immersive horror experience with real-time graphics powered by Unreal Engine 5. The Joy of Creation puts you in the shoes of The Creator, a game developer forced to confront the manifestations of his own mind throughout five unique levels, each with a unique blend of free-roaming and classic sit-and-survive gameplay mechanics. This game is officially backed by Scott Cawthon as part of the Fazbear Fanverse Initiative.
