5 Scary-Good Tips for Hello Neighbor: A Guide to Mastering the Game

Discover the secrets of playing Hello Neighbor with these five tips that will help you navigate the game effectively. Available for iPhone and iPad.

Something strange (and potentially illegal) is happening next door—and it's your job to uncover the truth.

In this unnerving first-person game of hide-and-seek, you'll enter the basement of your eerie neighbor's house, which is filled with traps designed to keep you out. But fear not! These tips will assist you in conquering the terror.

Can you outsmart your neighbor?

1. Move Stealthily

Take slow and careful steps to minimize noise. Loudly barging through doors is not welcomed here!

2. Evade Detection

If your neighbor spots you, make a run for it. (You'll notice the sides of the screen darken as he approaches.) Cross the street to ensure he's no longer chasing you—then catch your breath and sneak back in.

3. Plan Your Inventory

You can only carry a limited amount of items, so be strategic in what you bring along. Keep important keys in your house, for example, or place an umbrella near the roof where you'll need it later.

Your neighbor is surprisingly agile in his argyle attire.

4. Create Distractions

If you need to reach a specific room without being noticed, cause a commotion to divert your neighbor's attention elsewhere. The circuit breaker box is particularly useful for this purpose!

5. Plan Your Escape

While exploring, always identify potential hiding spots or clear paths off the property. Being caught out in the open or trapped behind locked doors will lead to an early demise.
