The game Poppy Playtime is a horror game series made by the company Mob Entertainment. They are the creators of all 5 of the current chapters of Poppy Playtime. I’m gonna cut to the chase after playing the game. On day one it came out I went in with high hopes and came out disappointed. This chapter lacked so much that most of the game was pure filler for the story and the game itself felt so rushed. This whole game was just chase sequences and puzzles. I know the game is supposed to have puzzles but it was a big amount of puzzles put together.
The big man himself, the main antagonist of this game “The Prototype” always being told that he’s the worst and biggest and baddest in all the chapters, sees him a few times then finally gets to see what he looks like in the last part of the game. Despite being referenced and talked about and shown in all promotional art and trailers of the game and on the thumbnail of the game. Is used as a “final boss” that’s normally a good thing this was not we were supposed to face against the prototype but end up just running from him basically not letting him have screen time at all.
Most of this game you’re just doing puzzles with no characters nearby at all, just pure filler and nothing else. It feels like the developers of the game are just juicing it until they can’t get anything else out of it. The biggest flaw within the game is that it’s hardly even scary at all. The horror aspect of the game has been lowered and taken over by puzzles and that was it not even the cheap jumscares were any good
Overall, I think this chapter was not better than the others and that’s sad to say because all the chapters before showed major improvement. In my opinion chapter 3 still holds up as the best chapter of the game.
