A golden rule in business is that once you have hit on a successful commercial model, you franchise it.

The same, evidently, holds for Five Nights at Freddy's pizza parlor. For instead of chasing rogue robots, this time, you are in the kitchen, not the security.

The twist with this pizzeria sim is that you are the boss of a fledgling franchise and fighting to make your business a success. However, when night falls, things take a sinister turn. Exactly as you would expect from this FNaF spin-off.

Features

● Great pizzeria simulation and attention to detail

● Entertaining plotlines

● A game within a game when the lights go out

● Malign animatronics to deal with at the end of a busy day's pizza baking

If you are looking to own a pizza franchise in real life, this game is probably not the best training. But as a game, it's rather excellent.

Like many jobs, you have to start at the bottom and work your way to the top.

Start pizza tossing, work hard, and you will soon be the owner of your very own pizza joint. And who hasn't dreamt about that at some point?

Once you have stepped up to the (pizza) plate and landed your own restaurant, you first have to kit it out. This means browsing catalogs, buying equipment, animatronics, deciding on the decor, and more. Then, when you're sure you have got your outlet ready, it's time to throw open the doors of your Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria!

However, it's tough at the top. There's no easy ride here. First, you have to keep the pizzas flowing and the customers happy all day long. Then there's the paperwork and locking up to be done. To succeed in the pizza game, you need to put in some long hours to build up your business.

But just as silence falls, things take a creepy turn. There are all sorts of beasties waiting to catch you unawares. Fortunately, you have a flashlight to ward them off.

Survive the night, and the next day you have to think about reinvesting your previous day's takings in new equipment. Choose wisely, and it's possible to build your pizza franchise empire.

Handily the game also provides everything you need to know and the tools to turn your outlet into a popular and profitable business.
