Popgoes

About

Popgoes casts you as a night guard at a futuristic pizzeria run by a reclusive inventor named Fritz. This point-and-click strategy game tasks you with managing the restaurant’s hyper-efficient robots like Popgoes the Weasel and Blake the Badger, who cook, clean, and entertain with robotic precision. Unlike horror-focused pizzeria games, everything here works flawlessly, no breakdowns, no surprises. Your job is to monitor systems, fulfill Fritz’s odd requests, and ensure his eccentric vision stays on track. The gameplay mixes inventory puzzles with timed tasks, all set to a quirky British tone. The game stands out for its deadpan humor and satirical take on over-engineered tech. While it echoes Five Nights at Freddy’s structure, it swaps tension for absurdist charm, focusing on Fritz’s obsession with control. Players appreciate the creative robot designs and the contrast between polished systems and the developer’s clear love for indie experimentation. Released in 2016, it remains a niche favorite for those seeking a lighthearted twist on the genre.

Storyline

A year after the fire at Fazbear's Fright, a rich and creative inventor in England, only known as Fritz, has taken the role of continuing the animatronic pizzeria brand with his own restaurant called The Popgoes Pizzeria. Sporting extremely advanced robotic characters such as Popgoes the Weasel and Blake the Badger, the place soon became notable for being technologically ahead of its time. With 3D printers in almost every room, touch-screen phones for kids to play with, and animatronics that can cook your meal from scratch, surely something is going to malfunction? Well, no. Nothing ever malfunctions, nothing ever plays up. Everything follows orders, and everything is predictable. A true successor to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, with none of the death! But, the truth is, Fritz didn't build The Popgoes Pizzeria for customers. He built it for himself. And as a night guard for the place, you're a part of it. So, let's get started. Let's help Fritz out.
