"Of course you'll never get to experience Freddy Fazbear's Pizza like I did. And maybe that's a good thing. But a few months ago, I wondered... What if Popgoes could?"
Players take care of an extremely needy weasel named Popgoes in this resource management minigame. The gameplay features simple but addictive "survival" mechanics with minimalistic controls. To keep Popgoes from passing out or dying, players must provide him with pizza, fizzy drinks, and the best entertainment from Freddy Fazbear himself.
Beyond the base campaign, the Steam version offers additional challenging gameplay modes. These include Sticky, Expire, and Blind modes, which introduce new twists to the core resource management. Players can also enjoy entirely new minigames like Longest Popgoes, Fishing, and Topping Juggle.
One of the game's standout features is its nostalgic 2000s-era plastic LCD toy aesthetic. This retro presentation adds charm and character to the simple resource management mechanics.
While the gameplay may seem straightforward, this is a canon entry in the POPGOES and Five Nights at Freddy's lore. Players can unlock character information, diary entries, and other story tidbits that will interest fans of those series.
According to reviews, the gameplay is quite addictive, with players describing it as "simple but quite addictive." However, many also note that the game becomes extremely challenging, especially on Day 5 and the optional gameplay modes, where the difficulty curve spikes significantly.
