Tales from the Pizzaplex: HAPPS
Scott Cawthon, Elley Cooper, Andrea Waggener · 2022
Steve, a janitor who dreams of making video games, gets a job offer from Fazbear Entertainment that seems too good to be true. Aiden and Jace decide to scare some young kids in the Pizzaplex's tube maze. Billy wants only to become what he believes he really is, an animatronic. The epilogue continues the story of the construction crew.
What this adds if you've played the games
'Help Wanted', the first story, is the reason to read this one: Fazbear Entertainment hires a game developer to turn the company's history into horror games, which is the premise of the Help Wanted VR game told from the inside. Billy's story continues in B7-2, the last book. 'HAPPS' itself is a solid tube-maze chase through a Pizzaplex attraction.
