Just like the games from the FNAF series, Roblox’s Rainbow Friends takes place over the course of five nights, with each evening consisting of a special task or challenge you must complete while avoiding the multicoloured monstrosities. Of course, the price you pay for failing any of these tasks is high, especially considering you play as just a kid on a field trip, but there is a way to make it through the week.

So let’s dive into everything you need to know about Roblox Rainbow Friends.
What is Rainbow Friends?
Rainbow Friends is a Roblox horror experience in which you play as an unnamed child who has been kidnapped during a school trip to an amusement park called Odd World. From the moment of your capture, you must survive five nights in the strange location that’s entirely empty of life except for you and the Rainbow Friends (if you can call them life).
The game is similar to later FNAF titles, the Poppy Playtime series, and the popular Slenderman-like horror experiences in which you have to complete small quests inside of a map filled with nightmare-fuel characters. As you would expect, that means Rainbow Friends is teeming with jumpscares, and the developer regularly adds new ways of frightening yourself as you try and escape from Odd World.

How many characters are there in Rainbow friends?
There are a total of five characters in Rainbow friends, each in a different colour. The have their own way of locating and harming you, so it’s important for you to learn all their strengths and weaknesses. In the section below, we take a look at each of the Rainbow Friends characters and how to avoid them.
Rainbow Friends characters
Here’s a quick rundown on each of the Rainbow Friends monsters you might encounter.
Rainbow Friends Blue Friend
Blue is the most threatening of all the Rainbow Friends as they’re always patrolling the area looking for lost children. The only way to avoid Blue is by hiding in a box or a locker.
Rainbow Friends Orange Friend
You need to consistently feed Orange to keep them from coming out to play, but be sure not to feed them twice or they’ll soon emerge. Fortunately, an orange line appears to show where Orange will walk when patrolling, so you can quickly hide if you see that they’re coming around soon.
Rainbow Friends Green Friend
Green is one of the trickier Rainbow Friends as they‘re always on patrol, however, they’re also blind, so avoiding this beast is all about making as little noise as possible. Green can also find you if you’re hiding, so be sure to not make a single movement if you’re trying to avoid them capturing you.
Rainbow Friends Purple Friend
You only need to worry about Purple if you’re in the vents, but if you are in the vents, then you really need to worry about Purple. The only way of gauging whether or not Purple is in a specific vent is that when they travel through them they leave a small pool of water underneath the vent, so if you see this, it’s best to stay clear for the time being.
Rainbow Friends Red Friend
You don’t have to worry about Red, at least not in the current version of Rainbow Friends, as they’re harmless. You won’t see much of Red, at least not until much later in the game, but of all the Rainbow Friends characters, they’re probably the one you most want to bump into.
