The League of Legends’ World Championship continued this week with the final of the group rankings. The knockout stage has now begun, with the quarterfinals beginning on Thursday.

 

Samsung Galaxy and Cloud9 face off on Thursday, followed by SK Telecom T1 and Royal Never Give up on Friday. ROX Tigers and Edward Gaming are on Saturday and finally H2K and Albus NoX Luna on Sunday.

 

The semifinals will be beginning next Friday and Saturday.

 

Now I had promised a review of the newest “Five Nights at Freddy’s” (FNaF) game, “Sister Location.”

 

Scott Cawthon started teasing this game about a year ago, and it was finally released last Friday. The game is currently on sale for $6.49 as Scott decided to put it on sale for the release. The game can last for about five hours, depending on your skill level, but has replay-ability to keep you entertained and come back for more, as all the FNaF games have. No need to flee, this is spoiler free.

 

This game is easily the most polished out of everything Scott has created. The animatronics are both charming yet can make a chill go down your spine at the same time.

 

You are the night worker, as is common in FNaF games. You are in charge of repairing the animatronics for five nights, and are given tasks for each night. But the helpful voice who tells you what to do isn’t what he seems to be, not as the animatronic ‘Baby’ speaks to warn you of the dangers.

 

She is your guide to staying alive and to trying to free the animatronics from what has happened to them.

 

For each night, there are little mini games to help understand the lore. These games range from hiding from your enemies to restarting the power while fending off your attackers.

 

But what about the key aspects? There had been some glitches on release, but they have been patched within hours. There are multiple endings, depending on if you play the game straight through or if you go searching for answers.

 

The fandom has already been pulling apart the lore, but if you are more interested in gameplay, you may be slightly disappointed. You have to search for parts of the game to play.

 

If you are interested in the lore, or have played or watched someone play FNaF, I highly recommend the game.

 

If you haven’t played FNaF or look for compelling gameplay, you may be better off watching someone else like Markiplier play instead.

 

This game is made for FNaF fans who want to learn more of the lore behind the world, but watch Markiplier play if you are unsure if you’d like to play.
