Theater |
The Theater is a playable map debuting from the spin-off title Project: Playtime. The room is a large theater that was abandoned during construction, with two large rooms, a basement, and many employee-only rooms. The theater's gate is visible in Chapter 1: "A Tight Squeeze" (in the Main Lobby).
Appearance[]
Entrance[]
The Theater is a gloomy, yellow area that was apparently abandoned before construction was completed. When first entering the Theater, you encounter a small lobby-area, featuring a fountain with the familiar Poppy Playtime regalia, before going up a flight of stairs that introduces you to the main entrance of the Theater.
The highlight of the Theater is the large Huggy Wuggy statue featured in the center of the entrance, bathed in yellow light. A ticket booth with a large "WELCOME!" sign is located behind the statue, alongside a employee-only upstairs area that leads to the Projection Room. This room houses a large projection camera, which is also visible behind the Theater entrance.
Side Hallways[]
On each side of the Theater, are somewhat large hallways that lead to the Stage and Backstage respectively. The left side features a stone Bron statue, prior to a long hallway with the remains of minor construction. These construction sites can be used to slow any monster down, although there is a regular pathway that doesn't require crouching.
To the right, there is a small construction site that is visible from the entrance, leading to a massive hole in the floor and a secondary actress point into the Basement. This large hole is surrounded by multiple boxes, countless minor props, and a handle that can be used to grapple across the hole. The other side of the hole reveals a doorway and yet another staircase, which leads to one of the two VIP watchtowers; the doorway allows entrance into the Theater proper, alongside the Backstage.
Upstairs[]
The upstairs level consists of many interconnected employee-only areas. Entrances consist of two staircases seen to the bottom left and right of the Theater's entrance, beside the far Backstage areas. The left hallways consist of an abandoned dressing room, with merchandise hanging on rackets. To the right is a laundry room, with washers and dryers lining the walls.
Stage[]
The theatre stage is the highlight in the far center of this map, seemingly abandoned during construction and littered with debris and scaffolding. The stage has a large chandelier, with a large cutout of Huggy Wuggy's head surrounded by fire nearby. Around the room, multiple balconies can be seen with Kissy Missy golden statues hanging over them. Finally, in the center of the room, a large pile of colorful chairs is seen carelessly piled on top of one another.
The Backstage is similarly decrepit, with many boxes, props, and even mascots scattered around. There is little else of interest, although toy replicas of mascots such as Bunzo Bunny and Cat-Bee can be seen here.
Basement[]
The Basement is another small, yet major feature of the Theater. Unlike the Theater proper, its Basement is lit with a light cyan color in contrast to the earlier gloomy yellow lighting. Multiple shelves are filled to the brim with such as props, trophies, and toys. The area includes various mechanisms, which can be examined near the two Puzzle Pillars. In the middle of the room is a deep recess that can be bypassed via a Grapple Handle.
Puzzle Pillars[]
Strategy[]
Specialists[]
The Theater isn't favorable to Specialists, as almost half of the Puzzle Pillars are exposed and out in the open. The remaining Pillars are more enclosed but still accessible from shortcuts or other entrances. Most areas are wide open so evading the Monster can be difficult, with the only escape being to exit the area entirely to gain a large lead. Otherwise, the map is filled with low ceilings, Grapple Handles, Crash Doors, and alternative entrances to major areas. The majority of shortcuts require a character that can grapple or leap toward it. Finally, there are many Port-A-Lounges spread out across the area, which can be used as hiding places.
HELP M-
Monster[]
The Theater is a large, open map, allowing movement-based characters like Mommy Long Legs or especially Boxy Boo to excel. Huggy Wuggy, in contrast, may struggle with this type of map. With the large open areas, Monsters can easily pick off their prey despite plenty of counters. If a single Puzzle Pillar remains, you can easily camp the area to catch remaining Specialists who are bold enough to try to access it.
The Monster's biggest weakness is the aforementioned low surface, common across the entire map. Ventilation shafts within the Basement, Scaffolding within the hallways and the Theater, and small tunnels leading to these open areas can all make chases annoying, especially when Specialists utilize the many Crash Doors around the map. This map can rapidly swing between being rewarding and infuriating, especially for slower Monsters.
