Ultimate Custom Night (UCN) is a survival horror game developed and published by Scott Cawthon, released on June 27, 2018. It is the eighth installment in the renowned Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNaF) series and serves as a standalone game, diverging from the main storyline to offer a unique and customizable gameplay experience.
In UCN, players assume the role of a security guard trapped in an office, tasked with surviving the night while being hunted by various animatronic characters. The game features over 50 animatronics from previous FNaF titles, each with distinct behaviors and mechanics. This vast roller allows players to customize their experience by selecting which animatronics to face and adjusting their difficulty levels from 0 to 20, creating a highly personalized challenge.
The game’s primary objective is to survive the night by managing various resources and defense mechanisms. Players must monitor security cameras, control doors and vents, and utilize tools like the heater, A/C, and power generator to fend off the relentless animatronics. The game also includes a 50/20 mode, a near-impossible challenge where all animatronics are set to their maximum difficulty, providing a true test of skill and endurance for even the most seasoned players.
