Springlock Death scene?

[Slenderminion]

So, i've been thinking. We all know that we are in a Springlock Suit in Night 4, and we have to (somehow) wind-up the springlocks so they don't kill us, but what doesn't make sense is... they don't. No matter how unwound the springlocks are, it's always the Minireena's that kill you.

Scott, could you maybe add a Death Scene for letting the Springlock unwind too much? It would also help players who don't know the mechanics of the night, because it would show them more accurately what made them fail.

despite it being 3 years, i agree.

I don't know how you approach the night, but i always found it effective to not wind up the springlocks all the way. Only do that at the very beginning, later on the springlocks loosen so quickly that you'll be dead before you finish one side. Wind them less and less as the night goes on and by the end only wind until the red flash stops. Focus on those that are about to break.

As for the Minireenas, most say that you should wait until they are on both sides before shaking them off, but i recommend waiting until on *just about* reaches the top. You want to wiggle as little as you possibly can and as long as one is climbing on one side, another won't start on the same side until you shake them off.
When you do shake, pressing left and right once each should be enough to throw them off, but i've also had cases where they needed one more. Don't press more than three buttons though, it'll loosen the locks too much otherwise.
