“	Simon says: Do you want to learn the truth?	”
	— First Night's Easter Egg

Simon is the main antagonist of POPGOES. His name was first mentioned in the POPGOES trailer. According to the Extras, Simon killed his inventor, Fritz Glade, in anger. Simon would later return in the cancelled sequel POPGOES 2:The Dead Forest in a new form called Deadline.

History[]

After Fazbear's Fright burnt down, Fritz traveled back to America to participate in an auction. Sometime afterwards, Fritz decided to create a robot named after Simon, composed of illegal, yet extremely advanced A.I, as a replica of its namesake, in a vain and unsuccessful attempt to replicate his brother's personality. After realizing the potential of what he created, out of fear for his life, chained up Simon, on his office wall, which would, ironically, prove to be his undoing; Simon deceived Strings into inadvertently freeing him, allowing him to kill Fritz out of revenge and escape in the Grave Ending.

Appearance[]

Simon is a robotic creation that has the appearance of a purple skeleton with wires and machinery on the inside of his "body". His eyes are completely white. Simon moves his artificial body by having cords acting like nerves across his body, pelvis, arms, and legs.

Simon's head is in a tone of skull-like purple. Due the lack of skin (or covering), he bears a permanent grin. On his chest appears to be a "heart" monitor, showing how much his heart is beating. Some of his endoskeleton parts also show through Simon's artificial bones.

Behavior[]

It is difficult to catch Simon on the cameras. If you are having trouble, here is a guide:

After he appears, the player must quickly press the yellow button below the monitor and beat the night. If the player does this again after unlocking the Grave Ending, Lux Blake will appear instead.

On the Fifth Night, the player must check the Main Hall around 3 minutes and 30 seconds (2AM) into the night, which will result in a green-eyed Simon appearing. After he appears, the player must quickly press the green button below the monitor and beat the night. If the player does this again after unlocking the Grave Ending, Lux Popgoes will appear instead.

On the Sixth Night, the player must look behind themselves around 4 minutes and 30 seconds (2AM) into the night, which will result in a white-eyed Simon appearing. The player needs to look at him until he disappears. After this the player simply needs to beat the night. If the player does this again after unlocking the Grave Ending, Whiterabbit will appear instead.

In the minigames, an animatronic becomes a Lux animatronic after they go into the spotlight of their respective Simon head during the Night Minigames. The Lux animatronics will break the chains of the Toy Animatronics and will destroy them in the process. When all animatronics and Fritz are killed, the True Ending is unlocked.

Extras Character File[]

“	Simon is an artificial intelligence replica of a human with the same name. Simon's intelligence makeup allows him to evolve over time and force visual cues into other machines with similar A.I. He was chained to a wall for most of his "life", before killing his creator in anger.	”
