Hello Neighbor was supposed to be one of The Next Big Things™ about stealth, ingenious AI, and especially lore. So much lore that would keep people thrilled for decades about The Truth Behind Hello Neighbor's Neighbor And How Many Corpses Are In His Basement.

Then the entire series disappeared up its own rear end over said lore it didn't even implement and was devoured by 1000 bad programming and bad level choices.

Also there are shitloads of bootlegs and knockoffs you can still find, mostly on the android store like Scary Neighbor 3D Horror Games. and Virtual Scary Neighbor Game.

Anybody remember this poo poo? Anybody actually enjoy it??

The only thing I remember about Hello Neighbor is the creator desperately trying to get content creators to make videos about their game by tweeting at them 50 times

quote:

The Mystery of the Puzzle Master and the Grave Mistake

The Golden Apple Amusement Park opened, and a girl named Lucy Yi was in the front cart of the Rotten Core Roller Coaster. Due to the lack of safety features and the work of Gordon Cleave, she fell into a tree and died. Not long after, two detectives from Germany came over to the United States and attempted to apprehend Theodore for the accident in Germany, but they failed. After Ike's wallet was found, Theodore stole it and worked in the basement for weeks. The wallet contained pieces to a secret device in it, which Ike took from Theodore's parents. Theodore made his own device with it, and it worked just like any of the other devices. It was able to give the user good luck but gave the people without it bad luck. It was stolen by a society of humans in bird costumes called "Forest Protectors" before Theodore was able to give it to the puzzle master, who was going to keep it safe. The Forest Protectors used it in a ritual when a storm started and gave the town bad luck. However, it didn't seem to work, due to two of them, Gordon Cleave and Dale Tapps being arrested and one losing their job not more than a day later. During this ritual, the Lucy Yi ceremony was also going on, and the Golden Apple Amusement Park burned down, causing the forest around it to catch alight and the tunnels near where the rituals happened to fill with smoke and collapse.

it was a game designed for pigslop content creator streamers and as such, was slop. see also any/all other janky puzzlebox "run from a thing" games with really stupid focus on Lore like Poppy Playtime and Garten of Banban

Having tried it I can't imagine a six year not being bored out of their mind attempting to play this nearly unplayable garbage.

I vaguely remember it coming out, then it seemed like it flopped. That was like a decade ago? The weird part is it seems like I keep hearing about the game or seeing the merch but I've never heard anything positive about it or met anyone who played it.

Apparently 3 is going to be multiplayer

:actually: the multiplayer Hello Neighbor was Secret Neighbor, an asymmetrical game like Friday The 13th or Dead By Daylight where it is one strong player versus multiple weak players.

Wow so not only did he do well enough with a sequel but he also already made a multiplayer spinoff

This guy is clearly really good at convincing people to buy his games considering how much people are mad about his games apparently

I played it it's about a dude who's son died and he lives a sad miserable life with a shrine to his dead kid (dead family?) in his basement. It wasn't awful but it wasn't as cool as the trailers made it seem so it got forgotten about quick like most overhyped games do if they don't match up. Like the honey I shrunk the kids type game tht just turned out to be any other survival crafting game (which I also think is fine for what it is but also forgettable )
