The player's task is to break into the neighbor's home and solve a series of puzzles to gather the items needed to unlock and access his basement. In Hello Neighbor, the player finds themselves moving into a new house across the street from a mysterious neighbor who is behaving in a paranoid manner and seems to be keeping a secret in his basement. A standalone sequel, Hello Neighbor 2, was released on December 6, 2022. Two multiplayer spin-offs, Secret Neighbor and Hello Engineer, were released in October 2019 and October 2021, respectively. The game spawned a franchise, beginning with a prequel, Hello Neighbor: Hide and Seek, released in December 2018. Critics panned the gameplay, control scheme, and technical performance, although some praised the story, mystery elements, and art style. While the initial alpha versions of Hello Neighbor were received positively, the final product was met with largely negative reviews. The game's artificial intelligence (AI) modifies the neighbor's behavior based on the player's past actions, such as setting traps along paths the player followed in a previous attempt. Their goal is to successfully sneak into the basement of the neighbor's house to uncover a dark secret while avoiding being caught by him. In the game, players play as a citizen, who just moved into the neighborhood, and try to break into their neighbor's house. Initially released as public alphas from 2016 to 2017, it received a full release for Windows and Xbox One on December 8, 2017, and later for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android on July 26, 2018. May I propose that in this season of goodwill to all men, you do as I have done, and pass on the good word that this game should garner no attention from anyone ever and also, that we pray that no child is unfortunate enough to receive this game upon the morning of Christmas day.Hello Neighbor is a survival horror stealth game developed by Russian studio Dynamic Pixels and published by tinyBuild. I had the good fortune to not play the original, sequel, first one of these, and for that I am thankful. Graphically it’s passable, but the sound of that kid, counting to 10 in some Sims-like language grates on you after exactly 10 seconds, and it took me 5 minutes to open a door to get away from him. And I’m not really sure why, as most of the Jo圜on buttons are not used. To open a door you have to stand in the exact right space and press the right trigger, otherwise you look through the keyhole, which also uses the right trigger. Your character races about like an ADHD kid on a mixture of coke (the drug, not the refreshing beverage), amphetamines and Red Bull (the beverage, not a scarlet coloured bovine). Shit Cake: noun – when on holiday with a group of friends, you save up all your turds for the period of your stay, then on your last day, in the hotel or apartment where you are staying, you and all your friends take a shit one after the other (ensuring not to flush in between shitters) thus ensuring that the toilet bowl is filled with an almighty massive congealed turd.Īs I mentioned I actually thought my controller had not synced. The controls are bad, and I mean like a steaming pile of shit cake. So anyway you hide and stuff, then you’re in a bizarre kids dream world, but still hiding. The problem with this game is that it is so broken I gave up after 10 minutes, 5 of which were spent reloading the game as I thought my Joy-Con wasn’t working properly, alas it was actually a bug in the game, I say bug I mean lazy inept programming. You play as a kid and you hide from your brother, at least that’s what you do at the beginning. The back story, front story, whatever, it’s not relevant. Hello Neighbor: Hide and Seek (spelt incorrectly) is a follow-up, prequel, whatever the hell you want to call it – look it doesn’t really matter, the game is bad, we know that. If you played the original game, which is actually the sequel, then you will know that this sequel, actually the prequel, is a load of old shit.
