Chaves Nightmares

What Is Chaves Nightmares?

Chaves Nightmares is a fan-made horror game inspired by Five Nights at Freddy’s, blended with a unique theme drawn from one of Latin America’s most iconic TV shows. Rather than animatronics, there are nightmare forms of characters based on the Chaves universe. The game is centered on tension, observation, and choice. You have to watch threats every night, act promptly, and with limited resources as mysterious events take place in your surroundings.

How to Play Chaves Nightmares

Chaves Nightmares uses classic Five Nights at Freddy’s style survival horror gameplay. You play as a detective staying overnight in a closed venue, monitoring threats and surviving until morning while uncovering a dark mystery tied to a past incident.

Each night, you must:

• Monitor enemy movement using cameras and on-screen systems
• React quickly to characters trying to reach your position
• Manage limited resources and attention, choosing when to act and when to wait
• Survive until dawn to progress to the next night

Game Controls:

• Mouse Click - Interact with cameras, doors, lights, and on-screen controls
• Mouse Movement - Navigate between views and menus
• Menu Buttons - Access settings, extras, and custom night options

Story and Atmosphere

Years after a disturbing incident shut down the venue, strange things are still happening inside. You’re hired to stay overnight and investigate—but every night reveals more danger.

The atmosphere is built through:

• Dark reinterpretations of familiar characters
• Creepy sound design and sudden jumpscares
• A slow-burn mystery that rewards careful attention

Game Modes and Nights

Chaves Nightmares offers solid replay value with multiple modes:

• 5 Main Nights - Each night increases in difficulty and intensity
• Bonus Night (Night 6) - A tougher challenge for experienced players
• Custom Night - Predefined challenges that let you tweak difficulty and enemy behavior

Every mode pushes your survival skills further while revealing more of the story.

Enemies and Challenges

It has 8 types of characters, which may assault and interfere with your progress. They both act differently and this is why you need to change your approach and not the same routine. The trick of learning, timing your activities, and remaining calm during the pressures are important to get through the night.

Visual Style and Extras

The game has hand-drawn 2D graphics, which give it a unique stylized appearance unlike the average FNaF fan game.

An Extras Menu unlocks additional content, including:

• Character gallery
• Jumpscare collection
• Game trivia and curiosities
