Prize Counter FNAF Security Breach

Part 10: Prize Counter FNAF Security Breach

This guide will go over the Prize Counter and Find Freddy missions in FNAF Security Breach. When you first get this mission you must choose between doing Prize Counter or Loading Dock. If you did Loading Dock first then you cannot do Prize Counter until you get the decommission Chica and Monty missions. This is a completely optional mission and doing it only gives you an extra security level and some collectibles. We can find 3 presents and 1 bag in this area. The VIP exit is also hidden in the prize counter area.

Mission: Prize Counter FNAF Security Breach

Objectives

  • Find the prize counter security office on the 3rd floor
  • Find the door to the security office
  • Find another way into the security office
  • Take the security badge from the security office
  • Survive until Freddy shuts down the alarm
  • Find the VIP room at the back of the prize counter

Mission Walkthrough

Be warned that near the end of prize counter (if you have not done loading dock yet) the game can bug out and break. The bug is that you cannot take the elevator in prize counter to escape. Due to this bug I highly recommend making two saves at each save station so you can easily backtrack if your game breaks. You can save over your previous save and make the second save in a new slot. Now back to the mission.

To start this mission we need to get to El Chip’s on the third floor. Get to the Atrium and take the escalators to get to the third floor. Look around and you will find the El Chip’s sign, that is where we need to go. You can bring Freddy here so you don’t have to worry about the security bots. But you won’t be able to bring Freddy into El Chip’s because the door does not open all the way. You can exit Freddy when you are right against the door to safely get into El Chip’s. Once inside you can save at the save station on the wall.

If you have not gotten it already, the Monty Fizzy Faz is in this area. You can find it in the kitchen on the stove, just be cautious of the S.T.A.F.F bot that is cleaning. Now let’s continue on with the mission. Be ready to move quickly as soon as you enter the door. The reason we need to move fast is because Roxy starts her patrol in the very back of the arcade. So we can easily avoid her if we move quickly. If you wait to long she will be in the same area as us and harder to avoid. There is also a staff bot that can be in front of the door, and a security bot that patrols by, so make sure to crouch and let the door open before moving. As you go into the arcade make your way between the two couches and stop at the end.

There is one present we need to get, and it’s in the bathroom. This is a tricky place to get to because there is one security bot patrolling up and down in front of the bathroom, and another inside the bathroom. You have to be careful when entering the bathroom because it does split, and there is another security bot in the bathroom we are not going to. So you will want to get into the front area of the bathroom, but stay in the middle so none of the bathroom bots can grab you. We need to go to the Chica side, so wait until the security bot moves away. Then run into the bathroom, stick to the left side, and run into the sixth stall. On the floor is a present with the Chica Balloon inside.

To get out exit the stall and stay right next to the stalls and the bot should not see you. Wait for it to move away from the entrance and book it to the exit. Now you need to look out for the bot that patrols in front of the bathroom. If the coast is clear exit and go left to the ball pit. Check to see if the security bot is in your way on the left, if not run towards the pillar and get behind the arcade machines. We want to stay behind cover to make sure Roxy does not see us as she comes down the arcade. Follow the wall down and make sure to stay behind the arcade machines when possible. When you see two arcade machines next to each other peak around the corner to see if you can see Roxy, or check the cameras.

Remember that cameras are one of your strongest tools. You can almost always use them to get an idea of where an animatronic is. If the coast is clear go to the next group of arcade machines and check again. Then go to the next group of arcade machines, and then the photo booths and hide inside one that faces to the left. Now you can watch the camera and wait for Roxy to patrol past you into the area we just came from. You may be asking why we didn’t just wait for Roxy to patrol down to the security office. Well the main reason is that it takes Roxy a long time to get there. So it is much faster to book it over here than it is to wait for her. 

But what if Roxy is patrolling the area we just came from with the ball pit, and security office door? In this case you will want to wait for her to be patrolling down towards the security office. You can hide in a cart across from the ball pit while you wait. Then you can run into the next area and be home free. Now that Roxy is no longer near us you can exit the photo booth and continue forwards. Go to the back right side of the room and you will find an area with tables, and a bag on one of the tables. Collect the bag to get the “Night Shift” text log. 

Now you want to continue to the back of the room towards the wall with arcade machines. Just look out for the one security bot patrolling around. When you get closer to the wall you will see some arcade machines next to an open vent. You will also hear creepy music, that is how you know you are in the right place. Now you can enter the vent, but make sure to walk down it. because soon after a friendly music man will drop down to brighten your day. Run for your life and you will exit the vent and find yourself in the security office.

The Security Office

Inside the security office you will find a save station and a security badge. As always do not pick up the badge yet because bad things always happen right after. First you will want to save your game twice. Now let me tell you about the chaos that unfolds once you touch that badge. Look around the room and you will notice it kind of looks like the classic security office from a normal FNAF game. Well, when you pick up that badge, Monty and Roxy will enter and a 3 minute timer will start. You will need to close the doors before Roxy and Monty get to them to survive. But you cannot keep them closed the entire time because their battery will run out. But there is a way to cheese this part if you don’t want to worry about getting caught.

The Cheese Way

As soon as you grab the security badge run out the left door and turn right. There is a red bench you can hop on and then crouch. Here you can wait out the entire 3 minutes timer for an easy win. I think the reason this works is because it bugs out Roxy where it sounds like she wants to chase you, but she doesn’t know how. So she just stands outside in the arcade. You will hear a bunch of jumpscare sounds but the animatronics will not come for you. The most important thing here is to stay on the bench even when the alarm is turned off because Roxy will walk into the room. As long as you stay where you are she won’t see you and will walk past you into the prize counter area. Once she is gone you can go save your game.

The Real Way

Now that you know the easy way to get past this part, I will tell you how you were intended to do this. First, before you pickup the security badge, familiarize yourself with the cameras. While the animatronics will stay on their set paths for this event, if you run out of the office and reveal yourself they will chase you down and break their normal behavior. This will also happen if they see you in the office, so it is important to still try to hide from their view if they are not approaching the office yet. Now about those cameras.

The middle right camera will show the hallway in front of the security office. The door here leads into the arcade, and this is where Roxy starts. If you look at the top right camera you will see a door down the hall and that is where Monty comes from. Both of them will travel a short distance and then stop for a few seconds and decide where to go. I will provide an image showing their paths and stop points. What you will mainly want to focus on are the positions they take just before entering the office. Also make sure to stay close to one of the doors so you can easily close it.

For Roxy if she moves to the top right corner after entering, then the next time she moves she will likely try to enter the office. It is also possible for her to go the other way instead. You can easily see if Roxy is in this position by looking at the top right camera, also called CAM_OfficeNE. As for Monty, you can also see him from this camera. If you see him in the corner then the next time he moves he either will go to the security office door, back into the prize counter area, or down the left hall. So if you can see both animatronics in a camera you can wait until they decide to move. If they are moving towards the door then close it ASAP! If not then you can just wait until they move again.

Now let’s talk about the other door. It is possible for the animatronics to split up so they will be on opposite sides, so you will need to switch cameras more to watch them. If Roxy turns left when she enters the room go to the bottom right camera, also called CAM_OfficeSE. Roxy will stop walking when she reaches the table and then stand there for a bit. She can decide to either attack your office or go back. In this position Roxy can be seen from the office door. If she does see you then close the door right away, otherwise wait for her to start moving and close the door if she approaches the office. From this camera you can see another door and Monty can come out of this one too. If Monty comes out of this door and is standing in front of it then he can choose to enter the office, go down the hall, or go back into the door he came from. 

Basically the animatronics can only move to attack once they are standing in one of the four corners of the room. When they do attack they will bang on the doors and then walk away. You can open the door as soon as they walk away to preserve the door’s battery. This greatly simplifies things and you can get lucky with rng here. For example, the animatronics could decide to keep leaving the office instead of attacking. Keep an eye on the cameras and only close the door if they are moving to attack. If you ever feel uncertain because Roxy is on one side and Monty is on the other, feel free to close the doors early. There is no problem with playing it safe here.

After surviving for 3 minutes Roxy and Monty will both go to the prize counter area and you will no longer be able to close the doors. They should close, but they will auto open if you get close. I recommend going to the right side of the office as soon as this part ends because Roxy will walk past the left door, and if she sees you she will chase you. Once they are gone you are safe to save your game and continue on.

If you are doing this after you already did Loading Dock, you can technically just leave at this point and go to Monty Golf. To leave you can take the door that Roxy entered the room from. However, then you would miss out on two presents. So stay with me so you can get those next two collectibles. We now need need to go to the prize counter, unfortunately for us both Monty and Roxy are patrolling the area. If they see you then it may be game over, as it is difficult to get away from them here. As always their patrols are predictable and I will include a picture of both their patrol paths.

Before going anywhere you will want to check the cameras because Monty will be going up and down the hallway on the other side of both red doors. Monty can be seen from the bottom left camera called CAM_PrizeBack1. Roxy will also patrol right in front of the red door that is down from the CAM_OfficeNE where we saw Monty enter earlier. If you look at the top left camera, which is camera CAM_PrizeNorth you can see a doorway on the left side of the room. This is where the door we need to go through leads, and if you watch you will see Roxy move this way. Wait until Roxy is patrolling away from the door and now it is almost time to make our move.

Before going through the door check Cam_PrizeBack1 and make sure Monty is not looking up the hallway. If the coast is clear you can crouch run out. When you enter the main prize counter area you will hear a jump scare sound and have your screen moved. I think this happens because the game assumes you will run out here as soon as you can, so Roxy is supposed to scare you. But if you waited then you won’t see anyone there, which makes for a weird interaction. In this room you will see a large door behind the elevator, you cannot use this door but Roxy can. 

Continue forwards but move slowly by crouch walking because Roxy may not have moved far in her patrol yet. Make your way to the middle of the room that has the huge stacks of Freddy plushies. We need to get to the corner towards where you see all the Sun merchandise. Gregory cannot go under the stanchions on the right side, so you will need to go around the counters, and past two ATMs, to get to the corner. Be careful though because there is a big door in the middle of the room behind the elevator that Roxy can come out of. When you get to the back shelf you will see a row of Roxy plushies and a row of Monty Plushies. Sitting on the top shelf next to a Roxy plushie will be a present with the Monty Mask inside. 

Now we need to make our way back across the room as we want to go to the area left of the elevator. I recommend using the large plushie counter as cover while you check the cameras. Figure out where Roxy is and if she would get in your way. Look at CAM_PrizeNE to see where we need to go. If the coast is clear continue forwards and to the left, if needed there is a cart here you can use for cover. As you approach the cart make sure to crouch because there is a counter Monty can look over here. So if you are not crouched he could see you. 

You will come to a save station and a large circular room, we will need to go through this area next. Feel free to save here if you are worried about getting caught. In this room Roxy will patrol down the right side and go out of the room. But then quickly turns around and comes back down the same side she just came down. Then she will go through the purple door and go left to the gate facing the hallway we need to go. Next she turns around and goes back through the purple door and loops around the glass dome and makes her way to the save station. From there she will go back out to the prize counter area and restarts her loop.

Even though there is a large glass dome in the middle of the room, Roxy cannot see through it. So you will want to wait for her to choose a side to walk along, then go the opposite way to make your way to the exit. You can check if Roxy is about to reenter this area by looking at the bottom left camera, CAM_PrizeSW. You also want to be careful when you exit this area because, as I mentioned earlier, there is a gate on the other side that Roxy can look through to see us. So if Roxy just exit through the purple door make sure to check CAM_PrizeNW to make sure she won’t be staring down at us. 

If the coast is clear make your way down this next area, but do not go to the door just yet. Instead hug the wall on the left so you don’t trigger Freddy’s dialogue. Quick note, you won’t have to worry about Freddy’s dialogue if you completed the Loading Dock mission already. Before running down to the end of this area check the cameras, as Roxy can see you through the fence at the end of this area. If Roxy is not approaching then run to the end of this area and go behind the counter. Here you will find a present with the Frozen Freddy Treat. 

How to Leave if Doing After Loading Dock

Now that we got this present carefully make your way back to the security office. Once there make sure to save your game. Then you can leave by taking the security door into the Super Starcade. Go to the left side of the room to find the door that will lead you to El Chip’s. From there you will want to go to Monty Golf and move on to the next part of my guide. 

How to Leave if Doing Before Loading Dock

Make your way to the red door with the mop bots in front of it and Freddy will start talking. When he finishes you will get a cinematic of Roxy approaching. Quickly hop into the nearby cart to hide from Roxy and wait for her to leave. Then you will be given the mission Find Freddy. 

Mission: Find Freddy FNAF Security Breach

Objectives

  • Return to Freddy
  • Use the Prize Counter elevator

Mission Walkthrough

Once you are hiding look at CAM_PrizeSW and you can watch Roxy patrol down the hallway. She will stop at the red VIP exit and then turn around and go back to the circular room. Now she will now patrol through the circular room and prize counter area. Be aware that her path does change slightly because now she will patrol in front of the elevator. So you can see her in the CAM_PrizeElevator camera. Our goal is to make it to the elevator in the prize counter. 

When the coast is clear you can exit the cart and make your way back to the circular room. Now look around to see where Roxy is, if she is not in this room you may want to wait for her. It is much easier to avoid Roxy in this room than in the open prize counter area. If you move fast she should be going down the left side of the dome. Then she will stop where the save station is and go into the prize counter area. Next she will patrol directly in front of the elevator and stop for a bit, then proceed further to the other side of the room.

Now you can continue forwards to the save station, and save if needed. Next hide in the closest cart as Roxy moves further into the prize counter area. Check the middle camera, called CAM_PrizeElevator, and it should give you a perfect view. Roxy will stop in front of the elevator for a few seconds and then continue further up into the prize counter area. Now here s what you can do. If you move quickly, it won’t matter if Roxy sees you. So jump out of the hiding spot and run to the elevator and a cutscene will start to move you to the Lost & Found Mission. If you do not want to make a run for it you can continue to watch the cameras until Roxy leaves, and then go to the elevator.
