Game Theory: The Bloody History of Poppy Playtime

Get your new Holiday Theory Wear! ► creatorink.co/4wj
What would you do if you were trapped in a toy factory and the toys came to life? I'm not talking in a fun Toy Story way, I mean in a Five Nights At Freddy's you are trapped and they want to END you kind of way. This is Poppy Playtime and I think there is a lot of lore hiding in the depths of this toy nightmare. Today I'm going to explain how I think Poppy may NOT be our big bad and what may still be lurking in the shadows.

Think you may have missed a key detail: Playtime's close ties to adoption agencies. I think experiments aren't just employees, but also orphans...

I'd like to point out the double meaning in "You opened my case", the case being a mystery case or crime case. Poppy was probably the one to send the note to the player, and now the player is solving her... well, whatever happened to her and the factory.

[@LordBaguette]

The way huggy wuggy doesn't kill the player instantly really shows he's doing it for sport

It's a security measure (hopefully it's supposed to be that who knows) and it's aware enough to toy with you

[@chrissy.508]

@@forecastlotus3899 able of cooperation and coordination

[@BatalionHunter]

I think huggy cannot instantly start hunting the player as much as it would like to start hunting (maybe due to some kind of conditioning? but you hear on the security tape at the start something along the lines that they have something "special" for intruders that can avoid or bypass the normal security measures). I think huggy sabotaged the security systems then the clocks so it could hunt the staff, since initially its almost inviting and aiding you in getting deeper inside, only after the catbee does it really go after you, and only does it show some intensity to its actions once you are in the vents

[@kyuu4540]

Also at first he is just walking, then he is faster in the vents, then he actually starts running at you when you're near poppy. Its either he wants you to find poppy, or he doesn't want you to. Kinda weird right

[@ashurad_fox5991]

Right now as of chapter 2 released, some things became clear and some things we can say as incorrect. -Poppy isn't the first experiment. But what was right is Poppy tried to help us and was quite nice at first. (But became sinister at the end of ch2) -Experiment 1006 isn't Poppy nor Huggy. But is the overlooked image from the unknown tape (ie the animatronic hand with human bone attached) which as the name implies the prototype. (or atleast one of the first, what we can assume the first that was successful) -The toys have organic material, which is true. (both ch1 and 2 shows this) -and based on ch2 Huggy is actually one of the more obedient ones... (if that thing is obedient, then I don't wanna see what are the one who aren't) So I think we can assume, the prototype (1006) will be the true enemy based on the experiment logs and what it did during ch 2. I think it will be the amalgamation of all toys we've defeated, and just to make it safe... After we beat it, I think poppy will control it to prevent us from leaving.

[@sierrasteven2296]

huggy wuggy in ch 1 is the security for the factory's lobby, in one of the clips it says tell you the "security" will deal with any trespassers, and it points that huggy wuggy being so obedient would definitely follow out gaurd dog rules like that. the wuggies that arent obedient are sent the wack a mole area

Might be worth mentioning: When 1006 is close to killing you he slows down a bit, especially in situations where you're trapped. This could either mean he's trying to toy with you, or could be attempting to lead you to his master.

[@Lanoom]

I've been struggling with the idea that Poppy is controlling Huggy...because if she can do that, why doesn't she just manipulate Huggy to open her case? He clearly has extraordinary litheness and agility and could reach her area, as the player sees in the chases. Unless maybe Poppy's case requires the strength of the GrabPack to open, and Huggy isn't necessarily that strong? I dunno, that doesn't seem right from what we know so far. I'm favoring the idea that Poppy is indeed an ally (for now, at least, never know with these sort of games) and Huggy is not under her control, but either acting independently as a sadistic monster or placed in the role of guarding Poppy by the true villain. The slow down could simply be a game mechanic to keep chases slightly more fair/less frustrating, and not be a plot device.

[@nebuelle1330]

To add to this theory: turning the employees into the experiments seems like it'd be tough to cover up since they're adults who would likely have friends and loved ones who might try to look into what happened to them. However, the tapes mention orphans, and how the company has a huge emphasis on them. Well, who would be prime candidates for experiments with few ties to the outside world meaning fewer questions on if they went missing? Orphaned children.

[@liolatte]

i thought from the beginning that they were using orphans but i thought they were using them to make poppy, but the experiment idea makes more sense because they most likely mass produced poppy and they defiantly didn’t “kill” that many orphans.

[@22Tesla]

Certainly would explain why all the broken toys (Bron, Catbee, and Boogie Bot) all have blood splatter leaking from them.... I suspect that is where the orphans went: into toys while maybe adults were made into the larger ones? I mean, there is only one 9 foot tall Huggy Wuggy and lots of 3 foot ones.

I think Huggy Wuggy was sentient and wanted to help us (hence him finding the key for us) but once we went towards poppy, Huggy Wuggy's security measure was triggered and he couldn't control himself. This may have been a "Less Tame" measure which would make more sense to the sudden mood swing HW has.
