Here you can write your reviews and opinions on FNIA The Golden Age!

I like the game but tbh bb is kinda boring idk she just has nothing to her (I literally forgot that she was a character in the middle of the game and freddy is just a tsundere which I don't like but mostly the game is good  mangle is great and shy I love it she is probably my favorite character I like the puppet's back story I like how she is a mom and her daughter is elizabeth so now my question is does afton have any kids or a wife idk i guess I will find out in the next update I like foxy like in general she is cool person I really liked when goldy had the virus and attacked the player but he just hugged her and she cried I liked the sad music that was playing it really made me feel bad for goldy that afton targeted her with a virus and she almost killed the man that was probably her last hope for freedom that would have been awful for her and did springy find out about it who told I will have to replay the game cause I think I forgot about somethings wait I remember now mangle actually met the player character as a child and when the character found out it was a nice moment and mangle is probably the nicest character in the whole game and I liked how fredbears was seemed to be close but it was actually still in the building behind a thin wall and at the back of the security office  that was a cool secret and now it makes sense why the game was named the golden age I don't remember who find out about fred bears being behind the security office I have to replay the game lol I like bonnie's innocence she couldn't even hurt a fly and finally the baby cut seen that was really cool and I am excited to see her in the game overall I really like this game it's a sold 8/10 for me and I can't wait for the next update but I will have to lol

sorry for my bad English it isn't my main language

I have more to say about this amazing game lol I like how chica is a normal person you can just talk to her like a normal girl she doesn't have an insane personality or anything she is just a girl which I really like she is mature

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the review anyway! I took my time reading everything, eventho it wasn't perfect. ^^'

But I appreciate your efforts! :D

tysm for reading the whole thing honestly I didn't think you would lol but I really appreciate you reading everything

Developer(+1)

It was quite a challenge to say the least ^^'

I'm sorry lol

Developer(+1)

Its ok ^^

Not going to lie, I downloaded this game for the nsfw aspect, as does anyone who enables adult mode on this site. But I have to say that I was genuinely more interested in the story and getting to know the girls, sure the anthro furry robot breast and ass shots were amazing and I can't wait for the nsfw content to be added, but the highlight for me personally was spending time with the characters, each of them have their own personality and you can easily fall in love with all the characters. Even though a visual novel is quite literally pressing one button the entire game with a few different dialogue options here and there, I was never bored. I felt happy to see the characters develop throughout the story due to our involvement, I was happy to see the Golden girls repaired and be given their original stage back in the Golden Age room, I was proud to see Mangle gain some self confidence, I was glad to see people accepted Foxy's return, it was nice to see Freddy go from hating you to liking you as nights went by, I got excited and scared at the same time when William returned. Even if the ending was all the girls saying in the horniest way possible that were going to do sexual activities with you, instead of feeling turned on, I felt a sense of closure, knowing that it was a happy ending, that sounds bad as this is technically an nsfw game and you're supposed to feel horny, but personally I think it's a good thing, I was so invested in the story and it's characters that I wasn't turned on by blatant horny scenarios. Honestly I could go on and on about what I like about this game, but as I'm reading what I have typed I see that it is quite long so I should probably end it here. Long story short, great game and I can't wait for future updates, whether they be nsfw scenes, story expansions or anything else really. :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the motivating review! :D

Means a lot to me! ^^

For the nsfw to be truly fulfilling, ther must be that journey to that point. This is why people say, they are in for the plot, not the "PL00T".

At this point I'm genuinely more invested in the developing relationships aspects of this game rather than any nsfw content. Getting to know the characters and the world they inhabit, genuinely forming a caring loving relationship with them was far better than some quick carnal pleasure I ain't gonna lie bro. Sure any nsfw stuff would be a bonus but the wholesomeness alone is perfect. 👌

yes, yes, yes, YES

Developer

That's right. I wanna include nsfw as a bonus, not as plot

do you have a set date to when the bonus will come out?

Developer

Not at all, but what I can tell you is than nsfw wilo come out last, because it's gonna be the hardest thing to do

Okay, dunno if my previos review was here or not, but i still want to leave one more in any case. Warning - bad English incoming(or maybe not if i am lucky, not native speaker). I want to start review from whole game thoughts. Game is perfect, litterally. Honestly, i didn`t see that was novel while downloaded game, i just was curios about all FNiA content, and was sceptical about it when started. But after... Dunno 5 minutes i already was into game. I finished it as fast as possible, because i really wanted to know story more than anything. And tbh, sometimes story repetative. Yeah, that is explainable, but i noticed at least two or three times when phrases was same from different character. But despite that i still like game alot. Next topik is characters. Cant pick one to like more, really, i love all of them. Making me feel myself more like protagonist that way lol. Events was good, miniepisodes are great. Only one purple character wasn`t good at all. For reasons, but he felt... well unfinished, predictable... dunno hah... Ti sum up: its veeery good novel and it makes you feel complitly different from main game and even fnaf overall. It`s like game connected to them, but with it`s rules. I honestly would like to see more. in curiosity i found myslef in game files(i belive i shouldn`t) and found some stuff never appeared in game itself, and was surprised. Wish all great to author, hope for more updates and who knows... Maybe sequel?(am i hoping for too mush lol?) THk for a game=)

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you for the in deph review! I think I understood everything.

And I appreciate you took your time to post this ^^

okay i thought for a bit and came up with some more words to say. i mean it`s more like about characters and plot

I am not intended to do offence or anything, but if we look at all more precicly plot is kinda... predictable? We cannot coinfirm how protagonist look like, but seeing everyone falling into interest with him makes me ask questions. I mean if he had no friends till animatronics via bullying, and all girls like fell in love or just liking from first meeting makes me wonder about sociaty(i dont remember how word spelled, sorry). And the way how things turning all so fast in very first meeting our character was greeeted he already wills to help withered ones like he knew them for ages, my apology, but what he owe them? He don` even know them much, and his dones are good and probably some ideal like character would do the same, but what would normal person do? That just feels... unrealistc? Yeah, me talking about realistcs in game with spirits, but still, i hope it was clear what i was trying to say.

NExt to say is animatronics. I won`t lie, it was insanly hard for me to choose with who i will hang out first. Because i even didn` knew that i`ll be able to talk with all of them, i had my hard time choosing. Yeah i thought i can only choose three or two lol. Lets start with Freddy. I mean she is good character if we hang out with her and stuff, her tsundere personality is interesting i won` lie, but not mine type actually. Still like her tho, espesially after mini event with her and Goldy. That was something i wasn` excpecting and i liked that a lot. Bonnie - is cute asf. I really enjoyed my time with her and gaming group it was really fun and stuff. Being active and optimistic actually lighten up my mood while playing so 10/10. Chika... I mean even in game was said that she is... usual. That actually makes her unusual how ironic that wasn` to mention, cant say anything about her tho, i mean she is cool, cute and all, but i`d like to get more dialoges with her? Dunno. Foxy. Her story and her way of acting caught me of guard really. I actually never thought why in FNAF was that sign and you get that idea like... new to me. She is among my favorites thats for sure. I mean i like all of them, but here is someone i`ll definatly can put higher in ,y fav list. Mangle. I can`t say if she is opposite of Foxy, but she is cute and everything. Espesially scene with tale and warming up. Too cute. Imho i liked her from very game beginning should i even say something else? BB. Well i liked her a lot. Her sister-like acting just was too... In her type? Imean that matched her, and i had good, noo, great time talking with her and everything. Pupper. She is different definatly. She has some wise vibe and all and knowing her story actually makes me a bit sad.(but i had some conflicted feelings due FNAF lore and her story and names.) Also reminded me about one alive tomb song if you know. I can`t say she was boring, opposite of that. Chatting with her was mostly relaxing and interesting all the time, but there was one thing i didn`t like(ill tell later), Goldy and Springy. I would like to talk about both of em. Idea of their story really great, i was curios about their fate all time and ref to the game name was cool. There is not much to say but i just like em, you know? I think they are interesting characters for sure and in reality i would talk to them 100%(well with all of them but yeah)

Side characters. I really want to see Roger`s sprites. I can imagine yeah, but it would be cool of he would have his own too. Troublesome guys and curios kids. I mean i would love to see more of daytime activity. Like why troublesome people would only hang out around Mangle?(i know why, but lets pretend). It would be at least refreshing to see Foxy just making that guy regrets his decisions. Also would be some interesting act berwenn kids and like BB. Maybe some kids who loves hugging TOO MUCH? Just idea nothing more.

In conclusion of all extras i wanted to add that in end of game, i realized i don`t want NSFW i originally came for. And just having some talks about them is... Well cannot describe what i feel. But espesially weird i felt when it happened woth Chika(reminds me of me talking not much with her), Pupper(i mean that obvios right?)  and others as well.


Last but not least is virus/ Why not attempt of making it`s symptomes on new cast on animatroniks and protagonist and golden ones helping cure it? I want more action(oh also hoped for some robbers to conme at night lol)


THats all... ITS HUGE WTF, thanks if you read it all

Developer

Most stories don't care too much about realism anyway, same with this one. Fictional stories aren't meant to be realistic anyway so it's best to not think too much about it. And some questions better remain unanswered or in your imagination.

As for the rest, thank you for the deep dive analysis 😂

Trust me, I read everything. I'll still try to flesh out the characters and story as best as I can. But don't expect it to be realistic all the time XD

i do understand that being realistic wpuld be kinda impossible. And not only about  just be like real, but more like relationships between protagonist and animatronics. Anyway huge thanks for reading it all, i appreciate it♡

Developer

👍

okay, i think last question for all time, till update. Will virus actually come back like Afton used to, or its already gone forever?

Developer

I'm sure its's gone for good this time

if i could rate it in stars ⭐, 5/5, the game is all in all great, no errors, and everything in the story is nice! All the designs of the girls are awesome and i love them! (My favorite is puppet-san, dont tell freddy-chan 💀) The Whole Game is still updating and i cant wait to continue the story more! And if there are grammatical errors, i either ignore em or just change it in my mind lol.

Al in all, great game!

Developer

Thank you so much for this review! I never imagined my game would be this popular and loved by so many people! :D

That kinda means that my taste goes well with them! XD

Thank you again for this review!

Hi Yuuto, I played through the entirety of the Golden Age and wanted to leave some opinions on the matter.

I really liked this visual novel. It's a very wholesome (interpret that how you will) story that builds up from getting to know the girls from romantic love to sexual love. Something worth noting is that none of the characters seemed out of place to me and all have unique characteristics; Chica was described "normal" for instance, but it still makes her different from the others, and Roger was a very understanding and friendly manager. The artists that drew everyone for this novel were fantastic, and I am excited to see what you and the team come up with next. For instance, Freddy was a character that I do not feel too much attachment to in many other FNiA games; her being a tsundere was an interesting concept (idk if unique, I'd have to do more research) and the artists did a great job conveying it.

One of the other things I liked was how very relatable and encouraging it was; not the protagonist meeting animatronic girls, but how the protagonist comes from a place of deep hurt and learning to move on from grief. He moves on from one family to a new one that truly loves him.

One major detail I would like to talk about is [spoiler] the implementation of William's character. As some people have pointed out when reviewing a different FNaF fan-game, Dormitabis, people did not like the Purple Guy's character. One YouTuber (who I will not name despite me liking him and his content, but unsure if he wants to be associated with FNiA) says that he doesn't think that the Purple Guy being a pedo "was something that people were clamoring for."

In this game, William is also described as a pedophile. However, unlike Dormitabis, I believed you tackled this type of character in the most respectful way you possibly could. And as someone who despises pedophiles, it is something I truly appreciate.


Overall, this novel is fantastic and while there are some minor spelling and grammatical mistakes, I can excuse that for the other aspects of quality put into this novel. (And considering the updates being seen on Twitter, the visuals look like they're going to get even better)

I'm looking forward to the rest of the novel being complete. (Admittingly, including the characters doing the nasty with the protagonist, take that however you will) ;)

Thank you so much for this in detail review!

The guy who drew the girls was the original creator of FNIA. Mairusu. But the new sprites we'll be using in the update is from Rex! That guy deserves massive respect! 

I also intend to flesh out the story and characters. Especially William. Like for example, I wanna make his doings less extreme. Because I gotta admit, I overdid it.

But other than that, thank you for playing and reviewing this game! :D

You're welcome. :)

This game would get a rating 6/5 :). Its just special. Its not like the other games, where the story is boring. This has a perfect and exciting Story! Keep up the good and amazing Work! I played this a while ago and was sad, when it ended, but i am exited for the next update and the Peeks are looking good so far! Good luck with the development :D

Also give Rex some praise about his amazing Work! :D

I do! Thanks! :D

The truth is that I downloaded this game because of the NSFW, but I really liked it, good characters, it has a great story (which also made me get a little excited xd), even so, I just didn't like that it was very fast moment of declaration of all. but without a doubt it became one of the novel games that I loved the most, I hope this beautiful game continues to progress. greetings
Developer

Thank you for the review and I'm glad you love it! 😁

I know this is really a tweaked and expanded copy of my actual review, but i wanted to say more and better. I came here expecting just expecting an NSFW visual novel like any other one. But i got so much more than that. I got a game that touched my heart deep and make me genuinely cry. If this game was completely absent of sexual themes (which it kinda is as of now) it wouldn't even make a difference. The storytelling in this is insane. It genuinely made me feel sad on the 5th night, anger at William when Puppet-san told her story, a genuine connection to the animatronics, and true friendship with them, as well as Roger, and extremely excited on the day i went back to the place. It's by far the best FNiA game (i believe), the best mature FNaF game, and maybe even the best mature game out of all i've ever played. And to think it's still in alpha... a great game, one with a beautiful story, while i believe some parts could be called "cliché" it's not like anything i have seen all strung together. It's truly a geat game. The artwork, which IIRC is done by one or two people, is great. The way the clothes suit them all so well is great, considering FNiA has the characters just... naked. Well, the clothes are great for characters that aren't Goldy-san and Springy-chan, since they seem to not have any actually. Every character has their own set of expressions that easily differentiate their personalities. Freddy is stubborn and doesn't like sharing emotions; Bonnie is jumpy and gets excited for the littlest of things; Chica is caring and supportive, calm; Foxy is reckless and has a smaller filter than the rest; Mangle is shy and calm, always trying to help; BB loves taking care of and watching over everyone, especially young children; Puppet is very calm and collected, not very social but a great listener; Goldy is generally just a good person, really chill and always up to do something with someone if it makes them happy; and Springy is generally cheerful and loves hugs. A lot. Every character is very different, and they're all just great people you'd want to be around. The way the protagonist's life turns around due to a stroke of luck, and finally gets everything he could've ever wished for in life, after 20 years of suffering, is great storytelling. The way everything lines up together nicely. He gets a random job that he could only work five nights for, but gets good pay (and then gets extended to forever), he repairs the old animatronics due to having been a mechanic, and having just the tools to do so, he gets an old animatronic performing again with some pretty colours, he brings an entire room back for the repaired animatronics to perform in, he kills the guy who tormented the animatronics for a long, long time and most importantly, he gets the friends he always wanted. The family he always wanted. The love he always wanted. And there's intercourse (or more like implied intercourse) too i guess. But the main plot wouldn't even suffer if it was removed. Overall, just a great all-round visual novel.

TL;DR: I absolutely LOVE the storytelling.

Developer

That's quite the deep review you made there! :D

But I highly appreciate the effort you made for this. I really don't know what to say! XD

as for NSFW, in my mind, it should just be the cherry on top. Just a reward for warming up to those girls. The feels are just stronger in that matter.

Either way, this review you made really gives us motivation to keep going and hopefully finish this game to its finest! ^^

Thank you very much!

I also felt this 

Well, I just finished, I'm crying, its an emotional rollercoaster and it got me from horny to sad then happy so quickly. You really should consider going pro, all of ya, you did AMAZING, and the fact this game was FREE Shocks me, thank you, genuinely, for at least teaching me a lesson, (and i know its cheesy) but, to hold onto hope,, no matter what, you never know what will happen. So, thanks... I've been.. going through some rough patches irl, depression and stuff, and i dunno, its brightened my view on things a small bit, whatever that's worth, anyways, thats all but in short

THANK YOU FOR THIS GAME!

Just started going over the episodes in extra, fuck the nsfw, I just.. like how you made the gals i guess, I know i Know im cheesy, but i'll probably talk here more as i go through more

Developer

Anytime :D

And I'm happy it helped you in some way.

Such a heart warming game. I loved playing it and the art work is amazing to.

Developer

Thank you! :D

Wait until the new sprites are finally done ^^

👍

super good story lmao, can't wait

Amazing 

I launched the game without knowing what to expect, but it was truly a surprise for me.

firsly here for the nsfw (yeah I know...) I was quickly intrigued by the story. I loved learning more about each characters even BB who I found boring in the first place became intersting and appreciable for me. Each girls were uniques and lovables on their own ways.

For me, a lot of their faces were pretty cute, and I was touched when they were sad with thoses tears, amazing job for the arts.

The extra scenes were like a dessert after the main course, short but still really enjoyable (and sometimes as deep as the main story).

the only bad point (in my point of view of course, I totaly understand if others like this, it's probably just me i think...) i was a little cringed with the japanese words (however as they were only fews of them, it was all right). 

But still really enjoyed the game, from the story to the characters, I'm honestly really hyped for the next updates.

(note: english isn't my main langage sorry if there are mistakes in my sentences or vocabulary)

Developer (2 edits)

Thank you for your review and feedback! And I'm sure you'll like the new sprites and images we'll be using for the game once the update comes out! ^^

(NSFW will be part of the game, don't worry. But much much later since we still have a lot of work to do.)

(1 edit)

when i saw that you released the first one in 2022 i watch someone play it and i wanted to play it and so after 2 years i got my  pc and i remember about it and downloaded the reimagined  and it is one of my favorite game out there and the storyline is amazing and the art and background and everything else was amazing  and im so happy your still going, im really excited for further update and keep up the hard work and good luck with everything game and i believe in you 

(p.s) you should make a discord server if you want to but anyways GOOD LUCK 

Developer

Thank you very much man! Glad the hard work payed off XD

As for the server, I'd reather not risk it.
