Evaluation

Hello Neighbor Alpha 2 is a historical alpha build of the original Hello Neighbor game, released as a free standalone product on Steam on October 15, 2019. The developer (tinyBuild) launched it — along with the other Hello Neighbor alpha builds — as a celebration ahead of the Secret Neighbor multiplayer spin-off launch on October 24, 2019. The store description and short description make clear that this is a preserved snapshot of what eventually became Act 1 of the full Hello Neighbor game. It was never intended as an ongoing product with future updates; it is an archival release of a development build. The last developer communication referencing this game was on October 22, 2019. No DLC, expansions, roadmaps, or promises of future content have ever been associated with this title. The game launched as a complete, finished artifact on October 15, 2019.
Evidence

About this game



Hello Neighbor is a stealth horror game about sneaking into your neighbor's house to figure out what horrible secrets he's hiding in the basement. You play against an advanced AI that learns from your every move. 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? The Neighbor will find a shortcut and catch you.

  • Suspenseful horror gameplay that focuses on sneaking around your neighbor's house
  • Constantly evolving experience where the Neighbor's AI counters your moves, and learns from what you do
  • Sandbox-style gameplay with plenty of environmental interaction and physics
