Hello Neighbor Gameplay

The game has a very simplified graphics. There are not so many details on the objects or heroes. But what we really liked during the Hello Neighbor review is its incredible animations and effects that immerse players even more into the gameplay. Also, note that the vast majority of actions will happen in low light. 

Gameplay 5/5

The Hello Neighbor game has a very deep plot and storyline. You will assume the role of a child called Nicky Roth. Once playing on the street, he heard a strange noise and scream from the neighbor’s house. Nick decided that his neighbor holds a hostage in the basement, therefore, he needs to help the hostage. It is where you start to play. And the first task is to penetrate the house. But be ready that the neighbor can return home anytime. When he noticed the players, they need to start the game from the beginning. Moreover, the game uses an AI system that remembers your previous actions and adapts its behavior. For example, if you first sneak into the house by a window, the second time it will be impossible because there will be a camera or something like that. But break into the house is not a single task. Once you do it, you face a number of puzzles and challenges inside the house. Your main goal is to find and unlock the basement to know the neighbor’s secret. 

Controls 5/5

As Hello Neighbor is a cross-platform game, the controls vary according to the platform. On the mobile devices, you need to use a touchscreen and a finger, on desktop version — play by mouse and keyboard. Overall, the control mechanism is decent and easy to remember. 

Replay Value 3/5

To tell the truth, the main game’s intrigue is the secret hidden in the basement. Once you solve it, Hello Neighbor loses its attractiveness. Moreover, there is no multiplayer mode, so you can’t play online with your friends.
