I remember going to Chuck E Cheese when I was younger, that Helen Henny animatronic would always stare at me. (For this edit, I’ve added more details) The animatronic would specifically only stare at me when I got near the stage, none of the other animatronics did it. If I came in left or right of the stage, Helen Henny would death-stare me. However the Chuck E Cheese is to my belief, getting remodeled.

Instead of Chuck E. Cheese riding the Fnaf wave, they’ve tried their best since 2014 to distance themselves from it and this is the final example

CEC then: Charles Entertainment Cheese CEC now: Charles Electronic Arts cheese

To be fair, the real Chuck E Cheese company is probably worried that someone will pull a copycat murder or prank with their animatronics based on FNAF. They probably hate the comparison. ...But if I were them, I would also start a whole separate horror-based company with the old animatronics for older kids.

Face it, this game is super underrrated since everything about it is phenomenal. Glad to see it got a review

Hey Dawko! Yup! Chuck E Cheese has been removing their stages for quite some time now, Dawko if you're ever curious, there's a youtuber called Sets Streets and Eats who visits the stages frequently and has been keeping track basically of all the stages left in the world. In March I recently visited my local Chuck E Cheese here in Canada and the manager even confirmed to me that our animatronics are soon to be removed, specifically around the end of this year. The remodels specifically are called the 2.0 remodel and they remove all the animatronics and old wall decor from the places, and replace it all with new, more modern wall art and decor, but the biggest change being that the stage is replaced by a giant Tv screen, and a (in my opinion, relatively small) dance floor. The words of the manager I talked to being specifically that; "I know you and your friends were over there looking at the animatronics, but if you looked around, almost nobody else was in the stage area. The kids simply just don't look at the bots anymore like they used to. I know theres people out there who love them and dont want to see them go, but in all honesty, they're hard to maintain, especially because they're REALLY old....and as much as i hate to say it, its just a dying art form." A survey went around from Chuck E Cheese corporate about what people want to see in the 2.0 remodels, which possibly opens up the possibility for the stages being saved, but its highly unlikely as, like you said, so far only one stage is keeping their animatronic band. As a FNAF fan and a Chuck E Cheese/RAE/IRL animatronics in general fan, its sad seeing animatronics slowly fading into obscurity and a thing of the past. I hope one day they'll make a return. Somehow some way, but even I know the chances of that are pretty slim. Once again amazing video though! I loved seeing this series a while back when you first played it. Hope you have a great day!

Cec employee here, super cool to see you play this (and yes, I am one of the guys who dresses as Chuck E. himself)

While i have no evidence to back this up, I believe they are getting rid of the animatronics for various reasons. 1: animatronics require a lot of upkeep, they can malfunction a LOT. This is a problem when they are in plain view of everyone in the building. Unfortunately there are many MANY instances of the employees not able or not willing to keep the animatronics in good shape. Aside from them occasionally moving in an unintended way, the suits can be very worn out from years of constant use, sometimes the animatronics don’t work at all, and they may even be left in such a damaged state that they can just be missing things like half their head. This actually happened. 2: its possible that the animatronics require more money and resources to keep running all the time, and a dance floor may be cheaper in the long run. Especially if nobody is paying attention to the animatronics anymore. 3: related to the point above, the only people that are probably still paying attention to the animatronics are FNaF fans and terrified toddlers. The company probably is uncomfortable with people acting as if their band is comprised of murderers. I myself will greatly miss the animatronic band too. as creepy as they were, they were a core memory to the chuck e cheese experience. Like dawko said, I’m glad they are at least keeping one band active, the company does know that there are people out there who love the animatronics and don’t want to take away part of their childhood.

One positive is that Chuck E. Cheese's did put out a survey recently to get a better idea of what it is that patrons would like to see in the restaurants. One of the options for retheming is intentionally supposed to create a retro, nostalgic environment more suited for adults who grew up with Chuck E. Cheese than any other demographic which does sound very promising. Additionally, from what I can remember, the survey did ask about the animatronics and how people feel about their removal. If a lot of support is shown for the retro restaurant concept, I can easily see multiple locations accommodating this change. I wouldn't be surprised if animatronics were added to the restaurants again, but they would almost certainly be updated electronic servo based models that would be easier to repair and maintain than hydraulic or pneumatic models. This is probably an overly optimistic interpretation of recent events, but it does make a lot of sense that if the company itself is willing to acknowledge a full scale retheme of the restaurants as well as the public response to the removal of the animatronics, I don't think it's too far fetched to assume that, it they do decide to bring back the animatronics, it would be in a way that's more cost effective and innovative. The original animatronics will always be wonderful, but it's difficult to deny the fact that they were very outdated and extremely expensive to maintain and repair since the parts they require often can't be purchased and have to be fabricated by a professional. Large corporations like Disney can afford the upkeep of their older theme park animatronics, but the same can't be expected from a smaller company that, like many other public entertainment and restaurant locations, took a massive financial hit during the pandemic. I hope that Chuck E. Cheese as a company will listen to all of this feedback and hopefully make changes that will appeal to more people. And even if they don't, I'm still holding on to the hope that we will at least get some FNaF themed attractions in the near future that can further revitalize public interest in this type of entertainment.

14:33 Dawko was momentarily possessed by Michael Rosen.

I want a sequel, there's so many other types of animatronics they could work with.

This game is pretty underrated imo. It's not perfect (but what is really ?) yet it's very well made and immersive with some unique gameplay and terrifying animatronics !

This game was so so good, the og Pizza Time Theater Chuck E. Cheese is so fascinating

Oh I remember you playing this game 😮

They are considering keeping a few locations the same with the animatronics but they'd be retro stores instead i think. I think the biggest one everyone wants saved is the one in Pineville, which I actually went to see myself. The special thing about that specific location is that they have Creative Engineering built bots instead of the ones you typically see in most stores. The animatronics in this game are based on the portrait versions of the characters, they were the first ones installed back in the 70's but I may be wrong. Here's a cool fact, originally the bots not specifically used in the Pineville location, but the majority of them were former Rock-a-fire characters before they were CEC ones. That specific band sung the same song used in the FNAF movie trailers, so that's pretty neat.

Wow, 3 years, time is going fast

0:40 I think the fnaf movie is why they getting rid of them. Don't want another man behind the slaughter

The part when the suit hold the door open gives this game such a scarily realistic vibe

I remember going to Chuck E Cheese when I was little, and I always thought that fnaf was like chucky cheese based on so many references. But although I can see why the locations are going away, because a lot of incidents in Chucky E Cheese, that happened years ago.

thanks for sharing, you inspired me to try something new

I wasn’t expecting this! I rember watching this on the channel the day it came out😭💜 Time flies, thanks for revisiting this💜 I was also really sad when they removed the animatronics, I feel like they just lost so much of what made them unique💔

Wow what a coincidence I watched the og videos yesterday!

MAN I REMEBER THIS GOOD OLD GAME BRINGS BACK MEMORIES and i agree with dawko if he was owner he would keep it open i would do the same

For some reason Dawko’s videos of this game is a real comfort watch for me.

Well done! The effort and passion are evident.

Tbh they should just bring back the old pizza time theatre models to chuck e cheeses for 1 month every year or maybe permanently

I've been so excited when he made this because this is by far my favorite fnaf fan game plus the graphics and game design is really good.

They still have an animatronic stage in mississauga (next to toronto) for any canadian viewers that want to see them. Went there once and even though theyre in super rough condition they still preformed songs, pretty fun for animatronic lovers!

Chucky cheese is my op now for getting rid of the animatronics

if chuck or any other animatronic talk that means they are in the gate

5:28That☺️would be cool!♥️If you bought a Chuck E. Cheese animatronic put it in your office but it would be pretty scary coming in to work and making videos and stuff everyday and seeing it!👀It will go boo 👻 then it will jumpscare😊you Lewis❤️:)! I remember you looking at Chuck E. Cheese on eBay on a twitch live stream! I was there☺️and I sure do miss good old days. 😢🤧You bought the Chuck E. Cheese pizza maker on eBay too.🥹I can’t believe😯 this was 5 years ago when you played this game! Feels like just yesterday Lewis.❤️

5 years ago??? Time sure flies fast, I never got to go into a Chuck E Cheese and see all the animatronics since I live in Australia, in a non massive town, but I always wanted to! I watched videos of Chuck E Cheese and Showbiz Pizza just to get a feel for it, anyway! Hope everyone has a great day!

7:19 Just gonna think about bananas... and Mario...

It's also been rumored that they may be saving a second stage on the East Coast of the US.

Part 2 would be extremely enjoyable. You could also revisit some other games you've done in the past, as well, like Five Nights at Candy's.

Ooooh this remake is really good! So happy for the developer for keeping it up.

This is still one of my all-time favorite fnaf games with JR's being my absolute favorite, and man does it still hold up. The designs and renders are so well done, it really makes you remember just how unsettling classic animatronics can be, especially in the right lighting. I really hope we one day get an official fnaf game with these types of animatronics, even if it's a spinoff or something they still have so much potential.

YES FNACC IS BACK! I loved this game OMG ❤

0:31 nah if you owned Chuck E Cheese, you'll replace the animatronics with FNaF animatronics

Hi Dawko just letting you know I posted a request on Cameo 😊

Let’s go! Back to Five Nights at Chuck E Cheese’s! I love that fangame. I’m really sad about the animatronics getting removed, but I never got to see one physically since I live in Australia😢❤

The OST for this is kinda nostalgic for me ngl

i would absolutely love to see a part two of this!

Finaly a game i can remake irl

I remember when I went to the Chuck E. Cheese's location in Staten Island, and I saw all the animatronics on the stage! The one I go to on Flatbush Avenue had a Chuck E. Cheese animatronic, but that's gone already. It's weird and sad that they're gone.

I love this game. They should make a sequel with cyberamics in the early 80s

Obsessed with the way Dawko says ‘Chuck E Cheese’ in full every time instead of saying Chuck or Chuckie

I want a part 2 as well

I appreciate the fantastic content as always Lew

They were actually called portrait animatronics

Dawko ur videos always make my day

Wow, i love dawko such a good youtuber and love this game. Keep up the amazing work.

I hope you keep going and making videos! I love your channel! ❤

These videos are always goodz these FNAF fan games are also good

It'd be neat if Radiance actually touched this game and it's concepts again. I'd love to see more haunted Pizza Time Theaters or even Showbiz Pizzas in this same visual style and in this same universe. (also the weird lore implications behind The Suit that mirror it's holding in that one ending is WAY too interesting to not expound upon).

Love this please make more love ur videos !!❤u always brighten my day ⭐️😊

Dawko: I last played this game three years ago Me: Ah, 2017? Also me: Wait... he meant 2021... I feel old lol

I loved this game when it first came out.

Love your video Dawko and keep up the great work you are awesome

DAWKO, FNAF IN REAL TIME HAS RELEASED

God, I’m gonna miss Chuck E Cheese animatronics. My cousin’s special needs, and his special interest has ALWAYS been Chuck E Cheese and its animatronics- he loves making his own out of paper and cardboard, his room’s been filled with them as long as I can remember. He’s been very upset about hearing that Chuck E Cheese has gone bankrupt and is taking out the animatronics, he’s been doing everything to try and get them to stay. Made a club at his school, wrote a letter to Chuck E Cheese.. I know there’s only so much the company can do since they’re bankrupt (they did send my cousin game tokens when they wrote back, and I can’t remember if they said they can’t bring the bots back or if they have no plans to bring them back), but I hope they make a come back one day because of him :)

I remember watching Dawko’s first video on this game. This brings back memories, even if it wasn’t that long ago. Thanks Dawko!❤

i haven’t watched you since you’ve had the hair changed. It looks amazing dawko!

This was always my favorite Fnaf fangame! Great video Dawko!

Bringing back a banger fan-game on my birthday. Instant peak.

Glad someone remembers this fangame and I’m happy I’m not the only one

hello dawko I remember when you used last breath from fnaf ucn on your fnaf video's

You actually revisited it Dawko! Nice! :D

I've been watching the old chuck e cheese show tapes on UKposts and it's like going back in time without using a time machine.

i was waiting for you to revisit this game it’s my fav fnaf themed game you have played 🩷

I’d love to see this game again

But there has been rumours that they might keep One of the 3 stage loactions However if not fans can start comeing at chuck e cheese they might get saved

YESS PART 2

Dawko you have no idea what you are getting into... this game... it's so painful... but hey glad you're having fun with it!

I would hide under the table from the creepy ah mascots so if fnaf was real I’d have it in the BAG if Mr Willy boy was wandering round trying to steal some kiddies

Please make another part i love this game

This would be great to see again~. Especially if he does the custom stuff at the end everyone seems to skip

Oh, i remember that masterpiece, i also just finished true nightmare last year

I loved your first Videos in this Game! 😊

There's no way it's been 3 years since this came out, time flew by way too fast

LETSSSSS GOOO IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SOO LONG!!!!1

This is such a great fan game

Imagine Dawko buying like 10 different chuck e‘s

One of the best fan games of all time

I’d love a part 2!

Wow, this is gonna be epic!

I beaten true nightmare in this game

There might be one more location keeping their animatronics It’s kind of like the Baddington version of the characters It’s called a three stage. I just wanted to get your hopes up for another one because I might be another one. PS I love your videos, DOK you always keep me happy on Saturdays and happy days

I haven't checked out your channel in a long time, I didn't know you got a new office room!

Dunno if anyone noticed, but there was outline of Chuck E Cheese at 9:04, like in FNAF like when there's an outline of one of the animatronics, I dunno if Dawko saw it either, but I think that was really cool

A old classic FNAF fan game. Really cool to see it again

I wanted to go to Chuck E. Cheese as a little kid since I saw the commercial on television. From the first time I went, that was my FNaF. But now I want them to stay (lol) in the locations because that is just a piece of history.

part 2 pls, the nostalgia is begging

Im slowly getting back into the fangame scene

I remember always thinking this game was really good back when it came out, and being quite astonished at how it kinda came, went, and vanished into oblivion. Maybe it was because of its kinda lack of lore or something.

Awesome game🤩🤩🤩

Place somewhere called Smittys Super Station in Mississippi I think that has a lot of old CEC animatronics from the king animatronic which was supposed to be an Elvis look alike to the OG 70’s band. Someone did a UKposts video of I can’t remember who it was. Edit: TheCarpetBagger was the person. He’s got some cool videos of CEC and other animatronic places. They even have the Rockfire explosion from ShowBiz/Billybobs wonderland in that place. It’s one big animatronic collection pretty much from ShowBiz pizza/ the early years of CEC. They even have the tokens and tables, cups you name it from the restaurants even some toys from the prize counter I think.

man, I liked seeing those animatronics as a kid. whoever is getting rid of them is making a big mistake and it will probably cost them a lot.

We need a part 2

imo, this the best FNaF fangame of all time
