Five Nights At Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic introduces several new animatronics who'll hunt players down as they go through Edwin's Facility. One of these is Big Top, a giant animatronic that operates the Carnival Showroom within the facility. Players will need to play some carnival games and reset the power to eventually earn spins at the Prize Wheel to escape the area. Here's how you can escape the Big Top Showroom in FNAF: Secret of the Mimic.

Entering Big Top Carnival Showroom in FNAF: Secret of the Mimic

After surviving a deadly chase from Jackie, players will need to head through the Big Top Showroom to get the next upgrade for their Data Diver in FNAF: Secret of the Mimic. Once you arrive at the showroom, the power is out, and you'll need to restore it by playing the tube tiles mini-game. Once you've successfully aligned the tubes correctly for the molten liquid to flow to the exit nozzle, the power will be restored.

A ticket box will appear in front of Mr. Helper's window to the right, which you'll need to crank to get an entry ticket into the Big Top Showroom. Now give the ticket to the hand reaching out from beyond the curtains to get inside the Big Top Showroom.

Playing Three Carnival Games to Get Prize Wheel Spins

Players will need to complete carnival games to get free spins on the prize wheel and escape the Big Top Showroom. This gameplay section will require you to complete all three games: Space Gallery, Shooting Gallery, and Ball Toss. After completing each game, Mr. Helper will reward you with a free spin at the prize wheel.

However, what seemingly seems like a fun carnival-themed game room will quickly turn into a nightmare as you complete each game. You'll need to sneak away from the Big Top to restore the Showroom's power to progress further.

Escape Big Top & Restore the Showroom's Power

Once the Big Top's nightmare phase starts, make sure to crouch down and carefully walk towards one of the lockers while avoiding mannequins. If you touch one of the mannequins, their voice will activate, and Big Top will be alerted to your location.

So, carefully sneak around Big Top until you reach the entrance to the showroom. At this point, Big Top will slowly start walking towards you, so you'll need to solve the power mini-game quickly to avoid getting jumpscared. Once you've completed the game, the power will be restored and Big Top will return to its normal state.

You'll need to repeat this two more times, completing each carnival game until you have four free spins at the prize wheel. On the last spin, you'll finally get the Grand Prize, and a pathway will open up, allowing you to head upstairs.

How to Get the Code for the Big Top Showroom Door in Secret of the Mimic

Once upstairs, there's a keypad next to a board with four symbols. These symbols will be random for each player, so just make a note of the order of the symbols on the board. Now, turn around and look onto the showroom floor to spot the mannequins wearing the headwear matching the symbols.

There's a number mentioned on each mannequin's back, so you'll need to spot the mannequins. Once you've discovered all the numbers, enter them into the keypad in the exact order as the board. If everything is done properly, the door should open, allowing you to upgrade the Data Diver's access to the Creator in FNAF: Secret of the Mimic.
