Hello Neighbor
Hello Neighbor is a stealth horror game about sneaking into your creepy neighbor's house to figure out what horrible secrets he's hiding in his basement. You play against an AI that adapts from your actions. Really enjoying climbing through that backyard window? Expect a bear trap there. Sneaking through the front door? There'll be cameras there soon. Trying to escape? Your neighbor will find a shortcut and catch you.

Review coverage
Critic signal strength
Numeric critic scoring uses full scored reviews once available. Review-in-progress scores act as temporary early signal only until full review scores exist. Unscored reviews still count as coverage, but they are not included in the critic average.
