Hello Neighbor could be fun, within the right parameters. The neighbour would hold a lot more terror if his actions carried any weight. The puzzling aspect of switches, hidden doors and traps would be more enjoyable were they staged within an inspiring world or using interesting concepts. But the game fails on all of these points, not holding attention, not really projecting any fear beyond the first few encounters, and the world feels as flat as the polygons used to build it.
Its sense of tension is there from the beginning, though, so there’s no doubting just how evocative this game is. Once you’re into, it’s easy to lose a lot of time, rummaging through drawers and sneaking through rooms and revealing clue after clue to what your neighbor has really been up to. The house is truly enormous, so while it isn’t the cheapest game going, you do get a lot of play hours for your money.
If you don’t mind solving abstract puzzles and throwing everything (including the kitchen sink) at your objectives all while constantly avoiding a particularly annoying antagonist, then you might give this game a try. Please won’t you be my neighbor? I’ll pass.se won’t you be my neighbor? I’ll pass.
