Hello Neighbor is a stealth-horror game where you sneak into your suspicious neighbor’s house to uncover the dark secrets hidden in his basement. The game uses intelligent AI that remembers and reacts to your actions, making every break-in tense, dynamic, and unpredictable.
Plot
After moving into a new neighborhood, you begin to notice strange behavior from the man living across the street. Odd noises coming from his basement spark your curiosity. Determined to find out what's going on, you infiltrate his bizarre, maze-like home—solving puzzles and unlocking rooms as you dig deeper into the mystery he is desperately trying to conceal.
Core Mechanics & Stealth Strategy
Gameplay revolves around three core elements: stealth, puzzle-solving, and evading the Neighbor. You’ll collect items, unlock new areas, and carefully navigate the house without being caught. The Neighbor’s adaptive AI constantly learns from your actions—crawl through a window too often and he'll place traps there; use the front door and he'll install cameras. Every attempt becomes a clever game of cat and mouse.
Controls

Smart Survival Advice
- Vary your routes—using the same entrance repeatedly makes it predictable and easy for the Neighbor to trap.
- Listen carefully to clues in the environment such as footsteps, humming, or doors opening.
- Use distractions by throwing objects or breaking windows to divert his attention.
- Explore thoroughly—many puzzles require experimenting with physics, objects, and creative solutions.
- Hide fast in lockers, closets, or behind furniture when he spots you.
- Observe his patterns—even with adaptive AI, he still follows routines you can use to your advantage.
- Stay calm during chases—knowing your escape routes prevents you from running into dead ends.
