5 Nights with Skebob's!

Skebob's diner seems like a cheerful family spot by day, but after closing time, the place takes on a very different mood. You've been hired as the overnight watchman, and you quickly realize the mechanical characters that entertain guests during the day don't stay in their show areas once the lights go out. Your job is to keep an eye on the security feeds, make sure nothing gets too close, and try to make it through each shift without incident. With a limited supply of power for the lights, doors, and cameras, you'll need to be selective about what you use and when. Listening carefully for footsteps and other sounds can give you a hint about what's moving nearby. The five nights get more intense as you go, so you'll need to learn the rhythms of the building and react quickly to stay safe. Keep your wits about you and see if you can survive all five nights.

What is 5 Nights with Skebob's!

You're the new night guard at Skebob's, and the animatronics don't want you here. Manage your power and stay alert to survive until morning.

How to Play

Use the camera system to track the animatronics' movements around the diner. Close doors or shut off lights when threats get close, but remember that each action drains your limited power.

Tips for Playing

  • Keep an eye on your power meter and avoid keeping doors closed unnecessarily.
  • Use the cameras sparingly, as switching views also uses power.
  • Listen for audio cues like footsteps or breathing to know where threats are.
  • Check the door lights frequently to see if anyone is waiting outside.
  • Don't panic—React calmly and close the door just in time to avoid a jump scare.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I win the game?

Survive from 12 AM to 6 AM each night. You need to make it through all five nights to complete the game.

What happens if I run out of power?

If your power runs out, the doors and lights will stop working. You'll be left in the dark, and the animatronics will eventually get you.

Are there different animatronics to watch out for?

Yes, there are several characters wandering the building, and each may move in different ways. You'll need to learn their patterns as the nights progress.

Can I save my progress?

The game typically saves your progress after each night, so you can resume from the last completed night.

Is there a way to practice before playing the full game?

You can start with the first night, which is generally easier, and use it to get familiar with the controls and layout before the later, more difficult nights.

What is the best strategy for conserving power?

Use the cameras only when you need to check on threats, and keep doors closed only when necessary. Also, avoid keeping the lights on in empty hallways.
