Review Secret Neighbor

Secret Neighbor: Hello Neighbor Multiplayer is a 2019 survival horror game by Hologryph and tinyBuild games. In this Hello Neighbor spinoff, you will encounter a bunch of new characters, the upgraded Neighbor, and an entirely refreshed gameplay. Get ready to join with up to 7 of your friends and try to beat the Neighbor until he eliminates everyone!

The Power of The Team

This is the first game in the Hello Neighbor series in which you can choose from 8 playable characters, including the Neighbor himself! The updated roster includes Scout, Leader, Detective, Inventor, Brave, Bagger, Neighbor Clown, and the classic Neighbor. The names of each character highlight the difference in abilities. Depending on the one you choose, you have to utilize a set of unique skills to help the rest of the team reach objectives and save each other from the Neighbor’s deadly arms. The fewer team members remain active, the harder it becomes to win the match and enter the Neighbor’s secret basement. 

Welcome The Neighbor

If you achieve the precious right to play the Neighbor character, get ready to use the new abilities! The classic character can set hunting traps to deal damage to children, transform into other children as a method of disguise, and become unstoppable after being hit 5 times in a row. The Clown Neighbor can throw smoke bombs to blind children, and turn into various objects around the house, such as furniture or, say, that pumpkin on the floor! The passive ability confuses children if they manage to escape your grip so that they can’t fight you back.

Get Ready To Fear!

Although Secret Neighbor: Hello Neighbor Multiplayer is totally player-driven and features no plot or scripted scenes, it’s really scary and challenging. You just never know where the Neighbor shows up and escaping is really tough, so you always need to keep your eyes wide open and stay bowed up to resist the Neighbor. The secrets in his basement are waiting!
