All Monsters in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3 - Explained

[@tobyva2391]

I love the detail of Theodore’s mistake repeating. Before he became CatNap, he was electrocuted by the Grab Pack and saved by The Prototype, but at the finale, CatNap is electrocuted by the player this time and ‘saved’ by The Prototype once more, causing his death. It’s such a small yet important detail that I love.

To be honest, CatNap's dialogue is like 'Agonal Breathing' like a human not being able to get enough oxygen it needs, which means theo (who CatNap used to be) was close to dying before, and for DogDay's dialogue, he was trying to get the player to leave before it was too late for them, and the screaming means that CatNap (or someone else) got to him before he could escape.

I don't really see the FNAF inspiration behind it other than the use of mascots, which FNAF didn't obviously invent. (Which, is kinda the reason why I don't like it sometimes when people make FNAF comparisons as if FNAF invented a certain concept. Eg.

It seems Bubba Bubbaphant, KickinChicken and Dogday were aware that they were once human since their cutouts were the only ones that screamed at the end, whereas Hoppy Hopscotch, Bobby Bearhug and Craftycorn all got brainwashed into believing that they were infact the real Smiling Critters and took on their harmless looking yet twisted personalities. And CatNap seems to be the only one of the Critters who simply knows how he was created and that he now owes his life to The Prototype and tortures any one of the other Smiling Critters who stepped out of line!

[@fatalisblack7213]

From what I can discern, Dogday, KickinChicken, and maybe Hopscotch were all taken out for either trying to escape or help the children try to escape. Bubbaphant was killed for knowing too much, possibly knowing about the bigger bodies initiative or worse what the prototype has planned. Now Pickypig and Craftycorn are interesting in the the fact that they're the only one that showed any form of aggression, with Craftycorn having been heard attacking someone. Pickypig on the otherhand, seems to have been more sinister, having eaten her fellow smiling critters before turning on the kids. It makes me wonder if she was a follower of Catnap up to that point, and if it was Pickypig's actions that compelled Catnap to lock up the Teachers?

If the latter is the truth, it may just mean that Catnap was just oblivious to the true evil of the Prototype... ...Anyway, Kickin Chicken was likely killed personally by Picky Piggy, since Kick was helping the Survivors escape, meaning he was cutting off Picky from her source of food... Bubba was likely killed _by_ Picky because he saw what she did... And Picky silenced him to prevent the others from finding out... ...Crafty was simply because Picky was Hungry and Crafty was desperate for Art Supplies... All it likely took was Picky telling Crafty where she could find more Art Supplies, and Crafty followed her to an isolated room... No prizes for guessing what happened next. As for Hoppy, her case is likely that she was helping others escape... And she was screaming for someone to jump to safety, likely because they were being chased, and the person (Likely a Child) was scared of heights... Her screams being cut off were likely because one, Hoppy was attacked from behind, or Two, Hoppy's voice cut off because the one she was screaming at to "Jump" likely got attacked... And her voice suddenly cutting off is due to Hoppy being in shock.

[@God-heaven4life]

Bubba Bubbaphant: Knew something he wasn't supposed to, and was killed as a result. KickinChicken: Nearly escaped Playcare but got killed after he was caught. Catnap: Choked to death on a Popeye's biscuit Picky Piggy: Either cannibalized some of the other orphans, or was eaten alive herself. Hoppy Hopscotch: Fell to her death, most likely by jumping around on a catwalk, and didn't look at where she was jumping. Dogday: Invoked the wrath of God CraftyCorn: Fatally wounded and promptly bled to death. This is what I imagine happened to each of the smiling critters.

[@theotherone7628]

17:39 one of the main problem with the living toys project is that even if you take away your stomach, your brain is coded to make you feel hungry so you can survive and get the nutrients you need. So most of the living toys ate people to give themselves the illusion of being fed, while probably not being in danger of dying to hunger. The pig probably succumbed to their hunger and ate some of the other smiling friends, which is why most of them scream, besides dog day who was probably torn apart alive.

[@ConfusedLemons]

One of the most interesting things about Playtime's horrific experiments, is that they can't actually SELL any of these toys. Think about it, it wouldn't take long for a kid to break a toy and suddenly be soaked in blood. The jig could be up before they're even on the shelves, with packets falling during shipping or any other incident that would damage the product. So why are they doing this? Investing *so* much, they had and entire underground orphanage built! So they either made up an absolutely amazing excuse for their toys to have blood and guts, or something bigger is going on...

[@animangle]

this is something i've been wondering since the beginning, because even the small ones are alive.

[@tessfabled4115]

The living toys were only to be used around the factory in place of workers, and possibly as living amusement park-type mascots but weren't ever intended to be sold. The underlying motive hinted at is that, provided they have a food source and aren't killed by other means, these toys are effectively immortal. Not only that, you can see in the VHS tapes that this process was also able to save someone from terminal illness or other conditions that would have otherwise killed them. Something like that would not only be world-changing but undoubtedly make the creator/s rich and powerful beyond imagination.

If the prototype wanted to truly rescue/release the kids, why didn’t he do that 8 years ago? Like after the hour of joy, and all the adults being killed and having their corpses dragged “down below”, why not send the kids out at that point? Like it would have been pretty simple for the prototype, mimicking a human voice, to call emergency services and have outside help come and rescue the children, instead of trapping them somewhere within the factory for 8 years. That just doesn’t make sense to me, it’s prolonging the torture for the kids to be entrapped, even more so than they were before the HoJ. And if the role of the protagonist is truly to rescue the kids, why is the prototype placing obstacles in his way? I mean Huggy just seemed completely deranged, but mommy and catnap both had retained their human capacity for intelligence and forethought and critical thinking. Why wouldn’t they bring the kids right to our protagonist and allow them to be rescued, at the behest of the prototype? Let’s also not forget that these kids have suffered terribly during the most formative years of their life, years that are critical to development and growth. It’s quite possible that the survivors have grown up to be as twisted and barbaric as the former adults that entrapped and tortured them. Death, despair, fear, anger, and pain is all these kids knew for most of their life. Not to mention, in order to survive, I think it’s possible they would resort to eating the now-murdered adults. I think this “down below” that Poppy mentioned is where the kids, and possibly the prototype, reside. Evidently the factory was built on top of an extensive network of caves. What if the survivors, in cahoots with the prototype and maybe Poppy, are luring our protagonist to a fate worse than death? Maybe for some sort of experiment, to perhaps give the prototype (Elliot Ludwig) or another toy-human, a true human body to live in again?

[@lenagalaxies]

That my biggest gripe with the whole "the prototype is good" theory. Because, why did Catnap then torture Dog Day? The mini Smiling Critters all follow Catnap, so why did they attack and kill Dog Day who still retained his humanity and goodness. And at the end why did the protytpe, or the Smiling Critters under the instruction of the Prototype kill or attempt to kill Kissy? I mean I guess you could argue that he just wants to end their suffering, but that seems like a cop out to me. To me at least it seems like over the years he's lost his humanity much like the other toys. He was probably originally good, but the years torture might've broken him.

I'm having a feeling the human experiment project happened when Pierre showed up. When the founder created the factory, Pierre must've showed up around that time to work under Ludwig so he can be next in line to run the factory when Ludwig is no longer in charge. Due to his greed and hunger for power, Pierre must've done something to Ludwig while trying to paint him as a horrible monster by planting a dead child in his home. And when Pierre became the person in charge, he started his human experiment project and (as you theorized) used Ludwig's remains to create the Prototype to see if the project is a success to continue from now on.

What better way to cover security and communication than using a toy? A toy that looks and sounds like the toy phones we have in real life? Its why he can't connect to certain places, Poppy knows and trusts him, and why we didn't hear about him til we got to the Playcare section. Playtime purposely limited his viewpoint to that section, to watch the employees, the orphans and possibly watch out for the prototype getting near the kids again. Since the companynwas aware about Theo/Catnap's escape attempt with the Prototype.

[@saturnz.official]

16:06 For Bubba, i think what they meant by "Want to know what i remember by you?" "(screams)" is that since Bubba has a living child inside it, Bubba remembers getting tortured by the scientists. 16:25 I think what they meant by "i'll step out first" is that he'll follow the scientists first, right after that we hear screams meaning it was when he was being tortured. 17:27 Taking a closer look at that PickyPiggy said, They mentioned all types of their friends but cooked. They mentioned "Hey, how about you and i become friends?" meaning that it is hungry for human flesh. 17:52 I don't really have an explanation for Hoppy, but as far i think they are telling the other kids to follow the scientists, the 'moon' is basically becoming one of the creppy critters. 18:32 I don't really know how to explain Dogday as well, but they said "you can't be here." meaning he is trying to tell the the kids to escape. 18:58 What i think she meant by "red" is blood. But she ran out of red paint (blood) so she killed whoever is there to be able to paint.

[@maximillian1109]

Bubba: An elephant always remembers. The kid remembers being, well...a kid! And probably the procedure. Kicken: Either as a kid or a toy, he wanted to explore outside of the playcare since he had lived there since he was a baby. Brought a friend along, and both got killed/injured by escaped toys. Crafty: ...went a bit mental with their arts and crafts. Clearly decided to draw with blood. Seems very controlling and disstrusting, anxiety dialed up ti 11. Hoppy: Seems to have simply gone obsessive and manic. Maybe "jumping to the moon" was them trying to jump up to an artificiall moon in the playcare, or the door for the cablecar? I imagine she finally broke herself from putting too much preassure on her body. Bobby: Afraid of being abandoned. Seems very alone. Maybe shut down mentally? Piggy: Went the same way as Miss Delight. Probably killed a bunch of the smiling critters after food began to run out before maybe being taken out by Catnap? Dogday: Sacraficed himself but it was all in vain. He wanted someone to flee, but they couldn't. Catnap: The "deathrattles" of a child on a ventilator after being electricuted during an escape attempt.

[@whatupworld-spr]

I don't know if anyone's done this yet but here's my take on the cutouts with the smiling critters 16:07 Bubba's could have been two things 1. The player was part of his bigger body process and his screams were that of him changing, or 2. During the hour of Joy Dogday mentioned that they tried fighting the prototype's control, so maybe some of them tried to help any survivors and were killed in the process while trying to protect them, his scream being the last thing possibly the SURVIVOR remembers about Bubba traumatizing them until there own death 16:26 KicknChicken's was him trying to convince a survivor to come out of a hiding spot to find a safer place or a way out, when he stepped out first to show the coast was clear, he was attacked by either catnap or something else 16:49 Catnap's has a lot of possibilities, but to me it seems like he's just laying in wait, stalking his prey and waiting for the strike 17:26 PickyPiggy's i think has a far more interesting twist, i think two things happened. 1. catnap kidnapped her, and for every smiling critter killed, in a twist of sick pleasure, she was forced to eat their bodies to avoid starving and eventually catnap found survivors and fed them to her as well, or PickyPiggy fell under the prototype's influence and began devouring her friends and humans alike until her death 17:50 Hoppy Hopscotch was most likely trying to help a survivor through the factory, however maybe they were badly injured, so when she's yelling at them to not look at their feet, that's her most likely trying to encourage their survival regardless of their injury, her screams were her being dragged away as they tried to escape BobbyBearhug's is her obsession with a survivor she helped, growing very attached to them due to her character's nature, and maybe every time they left to look for supplies, she grew increasingly possessive over time We all know what became of dogday And Craftycorn most likely had her sanity for a moment until the events of all that happened caught up with her, she was staying with a survivor, her creativity and painting giving her a thread of sanity before it finally snapped and she too joined the senseless slaughter That's my two cents on these anyways!

Picky Piggy's dialogue hints that she managed to kill 3 (Bubba Bubbaphant, KickinChicken, and Craftycorn) of the smiling critters. If that connects to the other three's final moments except Crafty, then that means she might be their killer.

[@DoodleDandy6]

A theory in have seen about the smiling critters is that Bubba Bubbaphant had been killed and experimented on from inhaling the red smoke, since you hear his laughter while screaming, Kichin Chicken tried to escape and was killed by either Catnap or the prototype, since Poppy had said that he would kill you as soon as you get to the door, Picky Piggy would have been left to stave, where she ate the bodies of her dead friends, eventually starving to death when she had nothing else to eat, Hoppy Hopscotch might have fell from a high platform, as to why she said about looking at their feet, DogDay was warning people to leave, saying to run as far as you can, whilenscreeming you can hear some sort of drill or saw, this may be when his legs were sawn off as the scream is the longest out of all of them, at the end of the recording you can hear something drop, which would of been his legs, Craftycorn probably had killed another toy as she says about hiding red, the scream at the end being her victem, with her fate being unknown. This is what I think happened.

Ollie is the Prototype confirmed. I forgot you even got into the factory by Huggy providing a key out of nowhere, which is the same thing Ollie does for you throughout Chapter 3. Poppy doesnt give you keys, she just opens locations for you, same with Mommy Longlegs and Kissy in chapter 2. Ollie has been the only one providing actual keys to the player, and Huggy is only following the Prototype in preventing the player from freeing Poppy. These things can't be coincidences.

[@nfmatham9]

I had a thought ever since hearing the last tape right before the catnap boss, the conversation between the scientist and the prototype. What if, rather than the Prototype's mind being that of a previous human like the Elliott theory, but was their first truly sentient creation with little to no influence from the base material. Hence why the head scientist is as he said, "excited" by the cruel experimentation and the secrets it can reveal, and the Prototype, despite its intelligence, is also learning how its new life and existence works. Being isolated in the labs in the depths, and later on seeing the lives of the children in the orphanage, all the prototype would know as "facts" is, adults find enjoyment out of vicious torture, like in the experiments it went through, and the children were used for the same purpose as itself, but learned quickly that this was "bad", and then tried to help the children escape the "bad" adults, testing the escape plan with the "befriended" Theo, which ended not only in failure, but also theo suffering the same fate as a new experiment. "...if freeing the children wouldn't work," ponders the prototype, "what about getting rid of the adults? And what better way to do so than to give them the "joy" they so desire, by the hands, claws, and teeth of the products of their own joyous creations..." Thus, the moment when the Prototype's plan commenced, was dubbed The Hour of Joy, for that is what it gave them no? That same "joy" which the experiments provided them in the first place.

My theory is that that not all critters fell to the prototype's control. The recordings show their last moments, Chicken tried to escape, Bubba was brutally murdered, the rabbit also tried to escape, and we get some forshapwing of Dog in his final moments which we witnessed. The others such as Crafty and Piggy did fall to the control and killed the other critters as well as the employees. They may have even turned on each other which is why Dogday was left. As for Catnaps dead, i think it was a mercy kill. Catnap was already in pretty bad shape, he basically became a martyr for his "god". Knowing his time had come and used his body as one last act of devotion. I honestly dont think Cat would have fought it and Proto knew this. Cat was scared he would be punished but realised the Proto was giving him a painless death, not punishment.

[@Jonah-Kiwi]

I dont know if there might be a deeper meaning behind it or if it is an important detail, but I think it's interesting that you can kind of connect the smiling critters to the typical concept of the 7 deadly sins. The obvious ones first: Bobby Bearhug could represent lust, since she seems at least very attached to whoever she is talking to. Picky Piggy obviously reminds of gluttony, because her whole concept is about eating and based on her cardboard it seems like she even ate some of the other critters or what was left of them after what happened to them. Hoppy Hopscotch might relate to wrath based on the fact how mad and furious she became when she couldn't jump as high as she wanted to. Craftycorn seems very greedy to me, since she demanded to get all the colors and when she assumed, that the person she talked to would hide some, she became wild. The others are a bit more uncertain, but still kind of match in my opinion. I would connect Bubba Bubbaphant to pride, because he sounded very confident in his ability to memorize details. Kickin Chicken could match with envy related to his will to go outside even though being afraid of going alone. This curiosity even resulted in his death (at least in his case it sounded the most like it), which could hint that they all died BECAUSE of their personal deadly sin and that they aren't just character traits for each of them. That would leave Dogday with sloth, which could be explained by the fact, that he always warned the player to leave and to "this madness and torment", while it seems like he didn't or maybe didn't even try. He is the last one who died and suffered a lot while being tortured, because he never took initiative to change something himself (just speculation). This connection might have been unintended and as I said doesn't have to mean anything or be of higher relevanc, but I like the idea, since the number of the critters matches up (Catnap aside) and it would be an interesting idea, if they died related to their specific sin. (Or maybe I'm just to big of a fan of the deadly sins concept, which is way I interpret it in everything that gets close to it.)

[@Buzz_brawlstars1]

And catnap is the devil

[@forgetfulbookworm8676]

When it comes to smilling critters, I am inclined to believe that they planned a big mission which turned into an escape. Dogday took the initiative of organising everything and it was going well, but they were betrayed and Bubba was the first one to noticed. Kickinchicken and Hoppy were likely leading seperate groups, trying to find an alternative exit and both died. CraftyCorn tried to focus on something else and went insane due to being unable to cope with stress. Her death may be due to starvation or PickyPiggy being hungry. PickyPiggy probably died due to starvation or trying to manipulate a wrong toy. This only leaves Bobby and DogDay. Bobby was likely meant to stay behind or she ended up being seperate by others. Unilike, PickyPiggy and CraftyCorn she remained composed and likely searched for others or got stuck somewhere. DogDay was harmed during the escape plan, but when it happened is unclear. Likely around time of Chicken and Hoppy death.

I imagine the cardboard cutouts of the Smiling Critters explain what each of the creatures did before they died.

KickinChicken - Tried to escape with the other Smiling Critters, toys or even the children, and was killed in his attempt. HoppyHopscotch - Also tried to escape, or went insane and flew into denial when she realized she would never be able to. PickyPiggy - Went insane with hunger and was probably the first to start eating her friends. CraftyCorn - Also went insane from hunger. 'Red' doesn't just mean blood, it can also mean food. She's desperate for food. BobbyBearHug - Probably one of the last surviving critters, and went insane from the isolation. She probably starved herself. DogDay - As the leader, he probably encouraged the other critters to try to escape or fight back, and this was his punishment.

My only confusion with Ollie being the prototype. Is if he wanted the player dead he could’ve done that through Catnap at the beginning of the chapter instead of tossing us further into the facility. On top of that it would also make Poppy a bad guy or just naive that she puts soo much trust into Ollie, her being asleep for so long could be a reason. What’s the end goal to kill the player for their involvement in the experiments? Freeing the kids *that somehow survived being trapped for years*? Freeing the prototype*even though they already killed everyone* so they can get revenge? I have so many questions? All in all I’m still skeptical of Ollie being the prototype.

Outside of that, a minor detail, but when you go through Dogday's dialogues on the cutout, doesnt it feel like a parallel to Dogday's before chase dialogues? Like: "Go, go, as far as you can!" and "Leave me, please! Just go!" or the screaming part which can be parallel to when the smiling critters climb into Dogday?

The thing is kissy missy was a fan made character and to put it in the game and have a major roll in chapter 3 shows that Mob entertainment really do care about their fans

What?

1:52 I couldn't see huggy at first cause it was so dark, but then i seen his hands and, eventually, his head😭 10:41 THAT WAS BETWEEN HER AND CATNAP?! I ALWAYS THOUGHT SHE WAS TALKING TO AN EMPLOYEE (I don't know why, i just thought that made sense at the time) BUT NOW THIS MAKES MORE SENSE!

[@Raycat-2011]

Crafty used the player’s blood for the painting. Picky ate the bodies of his dead friends CatNap became… CatNap. Hoppy wasn’t looking at her feet, and fell to her death. Blubba… idk DogDay tried to get the player to escape. Bobby was afraid, and was scared of being alone. Kickin’ was killed for leaving the Playcare. Hope this helps!

Bubba died for knowing too much

[@Mr.SnekMeister]

I don't know why, but I immediately burst out laughing when he called Picky Piggy, Pigpatch.

[@raikojanes5972]

17:48 interesting that PigPatch- i mean Picky Piggy's cutout didn't end with screaming/loud static, even CatNap's cutout had static at the end, and he only made noises which not gonna lie kinda sounded like he was snoring, might just be me tho

[@wynterwolfrose228]

It’s death breathing his brain isn’t getting enough oxygen, it’s Theo’s breathing

18:46 that one kid at Walmart when he couldn't get a bag of Takis

[@PrincessOfTheNight01]

I just realized that we take out Catnap the same way he got hurt as a child, with the electricity from the green grabpack hand. That’s such a good callback by the devs.

Lol TEACHER AMBUSH

[@ultimastorm820]

I wish for a DLC in the past of the Play Care where we could see every Smiling Critters interacting with the orphans and see the terrible things that happened 😭🔥

[@frisbeesRverrkewl]

That sounds cool ngl

[@thedraftingax5963]

That would be sick and awesome! Mob should do that!

[@dominicburch2374]

Haven't seen a video like this since your security breach video about all the animatronics. What a comeback.

[@KingstonBiro-x7b]

Bubba references the protagonists job at Playtime as a scientist. Kickin and Hoppy hint that the some children tired to escape leading to their inevitable transformation or death. Picky implies after the hour of joy, some toys ate each other to stay alive. Crafty implies the children were addicted to the red smoke and can’t go a night without it. Dogday helps others without the control of the Prototype then if you listen closely you can hear Dogday’s legs being ripped off.

[@annanaiyaparker5816]

13:08 I love how Dogday has hearts in his eyes ❤

[@applelol3669]

11:51 Poppy playtime HAS to collab with Scentsy and make cute scentsy buddies for the smiling critters. The little plushies has the same concept of scentsy buddies and it would be so cool to actually have one with the scent they were given in the game!

[@matthewshiba3997]

1. Bubba Bubbaphant mention what happen to this Place. 2. Kickin Chicken afraid to go outside refers to how some of the Employees hide. 3. CatNap probably doing some kind of Pray of Mercy to the Prototype and warn us to leave this place or he would come after us. 4. Picky Piggy mentioning all of her friends and the toys who devour others and cannibalism of her own friend to survive. 5. Hoppy Hopscotch tried to get out of this place, but got desperate when her friend gone. 6. Bobby BearHug mention how she was afraid of not being loved. 7. DogDays seems to warn us about the danger that lurk. 8. CraftyCorn said red is referring to Bloods everywhere.

This was the best chapter and I really wish we could've saved Dogday and all this lore is so thorough it never ceases to amaze me Do you think he realized that he called Picky Piggy Pig Patch

[@francescacastronovo647]

Hold on a minute, Miss delight at one point says "you're not like the other humans, you're different. I wonder if your screams sound like theirs too". Do you know what that means?! Bioshock type of plot twist incoming??!!!! THE PLAYER ISN'T HUMAN????!!!!!

[@layne423]

Or she could have meant we don't seem as terrified as the others, we are persisting through the factory despite every warning, every danger and every death....maybe

[@animangle]

i also feel like she, as a human toy, would know better than anyone what a human looking toy looks like and would be able to identify us as such

[@FayeLawnKrack3d]

What if the player character is a toy, but one that looks way too close to a human, kind of like the doll from Bloodborne? Like, almost completely perfect human girl? However, I'm leaning towards the player being a human.

[@animangle]

@@FayeLawnKrack3d I do think it's important to acknowledge that the game makes it a point to have us jump down from pretty high places with no fall damage. I wouldn't be surprised if your theory is correct.

[@wynterwolfrose228]

@@animanglewell the toys scream too, could potentially explain it

[@Nadiermage]

Not every smiling critter screaming for their life while catnap is just sleeping and eating the microphone 😭

[@LakshmiMoni]

hey in the time of the video 20:43 yes that part you had seen mommy long legs hand . and you remember that in the chapter 2 fight mommy told that " you are making me a part of him " i guess this will connet something to the figure catnap been worshiping .
