A free game packed with thrills and frights
One of the scariest games available today is The Joy of Creation: Reborn, which is not for those who are faint-hearted. This horror game will shock and scare even the most formidable players with its intense action, all taking place in a gloomy house at night when it's difficult to see what's going on, just like Five Night At Freddy's.
In this game, you play as Scott Cawthon, the developer behind Five Night at Freddy's, and you must protect yourself from a murderous animatronic robot. You can freely move around the house to avoid it, and your goal is to survive at all costs. TJoC lets you explore in free form, with unrestricted movement throughout the entire building.
A continuation of Five Nights at Freddy's
The Joy of Creation: Reborn is a Five Nights at Freddy's fan game, created by Nickson. You take on the role of Scott Cawthon as he tries to survive one night in an abandoned house haunted by animatronics from his Five Night at Freddy's series of games.
The joys of playing through games like FNaF are double-sided: it can be entertaining and scary for some people while others might find them too freaky. Those who enjoy being scared or have been brave enough to play this survival horror adventure before the new TJoC will be pleasantly scared again with its take on exploration and puzzles.
Packed with spooky horrors and immersive gameplay
Reminiscent of the spookiest parts of a horror movie, where the central character explores an area where you know that something is going to go wrong soon enough, The Joy of Creation: Reborn does not disappoint. It features full-screen action with only an overlay in the top left, displaying your key stats to keep you engaged.
In terms of goals, there's plenty of tasks and objectives you need to complete as the gameplay progresses. From finding useful objects such as flashlights or keys. Also, interacting with objects such as turning on electronics like radios so that the sound distracts enemies chasing after you, and opening up doors allowing you to explore further.
In the game, each location offers a new and different space to search through. There are many objects hidden around that you must find to complete your objective or level. In addition, there is a Survival mode where you try to hang on as long as possible while exploring the area by finding hidden items. Some areas will shock players, but others can be surprisingly tame, making you feel more relaxed and at ease.
Often, however, the game makes you feel like the whole world is against you. You have no idea what's around every corner, and everything looks like a threat. The limited view also intensifies jumpscares as things appear out of nowhere, unexpectedly.
How are the graphics?
The graphics of this game feels like an incredibly spooky movie more than a typical PC game. The sound effects are so realistic, they'll give you chills. The music by Nathan Hanover also adds to the frightening atmosphere.
You don't need a super-powerful computer to play this game. At the very least, you'll need a quad-core Intel 2.5 GHz or faster CPU, 4 GB of RAM, an AMD Radeon 6870 HD series graphics card or better, and Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or 10. If you enjoy playing games on their highest graphics settings, you'll need 6 GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce 470 GTX or better.
Can kids play it?
This game may seem like a great way to pass the time and have fun, but it's definitely not for kids. The game has many jumpscares and takes place in an abandoned house infested with a murderous animatronic robot that's hunting you down.
A fantastic game if you enjoy jumpscares
The Joy of Creation: Reborn is an incredibly engaging experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat. It offers graphics and sound, unlike any other game, while still taking inspiration from FNaF games to provide fun gameplay for all players. The levels are far beyond simple survival. Instead, you need to collect objects to continue to explore and move forwards in the game.
It's not for the faint of heart and can be pretty gruesome at times. However, fans who enjoy a good horror or gore movie will love this free-roaming survival game that emulates scary movies and heavily plays on the look and feel of its predecessor.
