Hello Neighbor Alpha 3 - Reborn Jan 8 2021 TBD Stealth This is a remake of Hello Neighbor's 'Alpha 3' build released in late 2016. This features most of the old models, a nearly identical house, and decorations.
Hello Neighbor is a survival horrorstealth game developed by Russian video game studio Dynamic Pixels and published by tinyBuild. The goal of the game is to successfully sneak into the basement of the neighbor's house to uncover a secret.[3] The game's artificial intelligence (AI) modifies the neighbor's behavior based on the player's past actions, such as setting traps along paths the player followed in a previous attempt.[4][5][6] A sequel, Hello Neighbor 2, is scheduled for release in 2021.
Gameplay
In Hello Neighbor, the player finds themselves moving into a new house across the street from a mysterious neighbor who is behaving in a paranoid manner and seems to be keeping a secret in his basement. The player's task is to break into the neighbor's home and solve a series of puzzles in order to gather the items needed to unlock and access his basement. As the player explores the neighbor's house, they must not be spotted by the mysterious neighbor, or they will be chased down, and if the player is not quick enough to hide or escape, they will be captured. The player can stun the neighbor by throwing objects at him for an easier escape. If the player is caught (or suffers a serious injury), they will be sent back to their own house and will have to break in again. Upon starting again, the player must be more careful, as the neighbor will deduce movements from the last attempt to set up traps.[7] However, the player can use the game settings to turn on 'friendly' neighbor mode, preventing the neighbor from setting these traps and causing him to be less aggressive in his pursuits. However, he is still to be avoided at all costs.[8]
The game is divided into four parts: Act 1, Act 2, Act 3, and Act Finale. The game is played in a first-person perspective, and the player must aim a reticle at certain objects to interact with them or to throw or use a currently held item (for example, throwing a ball at a window or aiming a crowbar at nails to remove them). Up to four items can be kept in an inventory space. Items of the same kind cannot be stacked together in one slot.[9]
Plot
A child named Nicky Roth is playing in the street when he hears a scream from his neighbor's house. Nicky goes to investigate and witnesses the neighbor apparently locking a person in his basement. Nicky sneaks into the neighbor's house, finds the key to the basement, and enters. He finds that the neighbor has converted his basement into a makeshift underground dungeon, but finds no sign of any prisoner. Nicky runs into Mr. Peterson, who is the neighbor, and is captured. Nicky wakes up, finding himself locked in the neighbor's basement dungeon. He manages to escape his cell and reach the surface, only to find that the neighbor has erected a massive fence around his property to prevent escape. Nicky is forced to solve a number of puzzles in order to find a way to escape the neighbor's property. Once he crosses the fence, he flees back to his home, though Mr. Peterson does not give chase.
Throughout both Acts 1 and 2, if Nicky is caught by Mr. Peterson before he can finish his objectives, he will have vivid nightmares about the neighbor's past. In these nightmares, it is revealed that the neighbor used to have a family consisting of a wife named Diane, a son named Aaron, and a daughter named Mya. However, the wife was killed in a car crash while Aaron killed Mya by pushing her off the roof, not knowing it would kill her, until it was too late. Mr. Peterson locks up his son in the dungeon to prevent him from getting hurt. This information was revealed in the book Hello Neighbor: Missing Pieces.
Nicky, now a grown adult, wakes up in his apartment. He is evicted from his apartment, so he decides to return to his old family home. He finds his old home in disrepair while the neighbor's home is also nothing but a pile of ruins. While inspecting the ruins, Nicky is haunted by a dark shadow-like creature and he returns to his home where he falls asleep. He is awoken by a child's scream, and he discovers the neighbor's house is back, but now larger, more complex, and more surreal than before. Nicky navigates the house and has surreal experiences, such as learning to double jump by shrinking down and trying to turn on the light that is far out of reach. Eventually, he enters the basement, now older and more surreal. When Nicky gets out of the basement, he finds himself trying to knock down a giant neighbor to get inside a house on his back. After doing so, he must protect a younger version of himself from a giant shadow man. Each time the shadow man attacks and Nicky protects the boy, Nicky grows larger until he is able to fight the shadow man. After the shadow is defeated, Nicky sees the neighbor in a small two room house. When the neighbor spots Nicky he runs aggressively to the window as if to start giving chase, but then shrugs his shoulders and turns away sad. In the other room is a much smaller shadow man. The neighbor has boarded the door up on his side and placed a chair against it. Shadow man is seen standing right by the door on the other side. Behind him is another door with an exit sign above it.
It is implied throughout the events of the game that most of Act 3 and the Finale is a nightmare occurring in Nicky's head, and that his escape from the house signifies him finally coming to terms with his kidnapping as a boy at the hands of the neighbor.
Development
The game was released as an alpha build on Dynamic Pixels' website in 2015. It was later approved for sale as an early access game by the Steam Greenlight program and a Kickstarter campaign was launched to fund further development. The studio signed a deal with tinyBuild to publish the game.[10] The first pre-alpha version of the game was released in September 2016.[11][12][13] The Alpha 1 version of Hello Neighbor was released on 26 October 2016.[when?][14][15][16] Alpha 2 was released on 22 November 2016. Alpha 3 was released on 22 December 2016. Alpha 4 was released on 4 May 2017.
The game went into the beta phase on 25 July 2017.[citation needed] For Halloween 2017, a promotional mod was released including multiple elements from the indie game Bendy and the Ink Machine. The mod includes a black and yellow background, ink, music from the game and multiple appearances of Bendy.[citation needed] The game was originally set for a full release on 29 August 2017,[17] but was delayed until 8 December 2017.[18][19]
The game was released for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One on 8 December 2017. A timed Microsoftexclusive, Hello Neighbor was later ported to the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and mobile devices.[20] The mobile versions of the game are only supported on a limited number of devices and come with a free trial that allows the player to play through Act 1, with the option to unlock the remaining two Acts and finale with an in-game purchase.[21]
Prequel and spin-offs
A prequel, Hello Neighbor: Hide & Seek, was announced in August 2018. Hide & Seek deals with the events of the Neighbor's family that caused him to become a recluse.[22] The game was released on 7 December 2018 on the same platforms as the original game, including non-Microsoft systems.[23]
On 10 June 2018, tinyBuild announced a multiplayer spin-off to Hello Neighbor, titled Secret Neighbor. Set between the first two acts of Hello Neighbor, this game follows a group of friends trying to free their friend from the Neighbor's basement, with each friend assuming a certain role and working together to get the keys needed to unlock the basement. However, one of the friends is a Neighbor in disguise and has various abilities at their disposal to confuse, trick, capture or otherwise deter the children from achieving this goal. More than a year after its announcement, the game was finally released on 24 October 2019,[24] exclusively on Microsoft platforms. Another spin-off, Hello Guest, is in development, and a demo has been released.[25]
In 2020, an animated series based on the game was announced, and aired for the first time on 17 April 2020.[26][27] The pilot was watched by more than 11 million viewers within the first week, which to tinyBuild's CEO Alex Nichiporchik, demonstrated the strength of Hello Neighbor as a franchise.[28]
In July 2020, tinyBuild acquired the development team from Dynamic Pixels to establish a new studio Eerie Guest Studios, and invested US$15 million into the Hello Neighbor series.[29]
Sequel
A sequel, Hello Neighbor 2, is set for release in 2021 for Microsoft Windows and Xbox Series X.[30]

Hello Neighbor is probably one of the best games out there when it comes to teaching us about the potential dangers our neighbors pose.
It might not be healthy to always distrust those around you, but one can never be too certain than the person living next to you isn’t a serial killer. Or so I’ve heard.
Shia LeBeouf also learned this a few years ago with that weird Paranoia movie, and Hello Neighbor reminds us of the exact same thing.
If you’re here it’s likely that you’ve already completed the game. But don’t worry, there are still many more things to do in Hello Neighbor.
The game is really easy to mod, and I’ve compiled a list of the best mods that I managed to find for the game.
All of these mods are easy to download and totally free – just follow the links below and they’ll take you to the respective page of each mod. Enjoy!
12. Hello Forest Mod
Hello Forest provides a twist to the game by giving you a completely new adventure to explore and new dangers to overcome.
Basically, you won’t be directly interacting with your neighbor. But rather with a strange man that lives in a dark house on the forest.
You will need to venture into the forest and find the man’s house while you also complete puzzles inside.
Wait, that’s not all!
You also need to hide from the strange man. Who knows what his intentions are?
I sure as hell don’t want to find out!
11. Hello Neighbor: Other Story
This mod changes the house that you explore in the game and replaces it with the one that was included in the older versions of HN.
However, the creator of the mod made sure to give it a unique twist.
There are now way more secrets to be found than they were when the creators of the game made the house.
Furthermore, you will need to face the demons of your past as you will discover some of the dark secrets that led you to where you are right now.
There are some creepy secrets that the neighbor has, too, so there’s plenty of new things to do and discover.
10. Hello Neighbor Multiplayer Mod
Yep, this is exactly what it sounds like! You will be able to play with your friends in any given save of the game, provided that both of you have the same mod installed and that you’re tech-savvy enough to get it to work.
In any case, as the author of the mod suggests, don’t expect too much from it.
It’s a very basic file that makes it possible for two people to connect to the same game. But it’s not a professional-level mod.
You will be able to play with your friends, though. So there’s that.
9. Halloween
The Halloween mod is meant to let you create a spooky theme in the game by adding plenty of new objects to the virtual environment of HN.
You can place them wherever you want, and you will see them decorate the house of your neighbor (or your own, if you wish).
In any case, the mod’s objects are well-crafted and they look very good, speaking about the quality of the textures and models of course.
8. Hello Neighbor 2
This game is a complete overhaul of the original Hello Neighbor, which basically turns the entire game world into a new one.
As such, the creator of the mod has decided to name it HN2, making this one an unofficial sequel to the game but using the same engine as the first one.
It comes with completely new scenarios and stories to help you get a new taste of the game we all love.
7. Hello Neighbor: The Mansion
This one is as cool as mods get.
It revamps the story of the game by replacing it with one with various endings.
The father of the protagonist (meaning your father) will be trapped in the neighbor’s house, where you will need to rescue him by completing a series of intricate puzzles.
Sounds fun.
Keep in mind that this mod aims to bring terror to the story of HN, which makes it creepier than the vanilla game. I think it’s a pretty good mod though.
6. Hello Neighbor Alpha 1 Remake
This game is a remake of the original Alpha HN title, but the creator of the mod made sure to import new assets to make it look more polished.
The game itself is also far better than it used to be in the alpha stages and the graphics speak for themselves.
It’s an entirely custom-made mod, and you will be able to try out plenty of new adventures while completing some rather difficult puzzles.
5. House Designer
This cool mod allows you to design your own home by visiting the shop of a new stranger that just moved into town.
There is a new item shop where you’ll be able to get your hands on some new materials, items, and decorations that can spice up the way your place looks.
You can also finish new quests to earn more money, which will give you access to more decorations.
4. Dr Hello
Dr Hello is a pretty creepy mod that changes the theme of the game to turn your neighbor into a doctor that isn’t there to cure your mild case of a flu.
The doctor is there with a vengeance, and the creepy theme of the game gets even creepier when you install this mod.
I have to say that the new scenarios and maps created for Dr Hello are really great – both in terms of design as well as in terms of the graphics.
A fantastic mod indeed.
3. Hello Granny
Hello Granny is a remake of the traditional Granny game that was released in Android, but it uses the mechanics and assets of Hello Neighbor to turn it into a PC version of the game.
It looks really good and it’s super fun to play.
Besides, it gives you access to a completely new game. And it’s free!
2. HN: Project Prototype
Hello Neighbor Mod Kit Epic Games
The madman that created this mod attempted to recreate, successfully, the house that we saw at first in the HN trailer that came out a few years ago.
The new map and adventure is extremely cool and fun to play.
The only downside of this is that the mod is not complete at all, so you’ll only get to experience a part of this new story.
1. Hello New Neighbor
This really creepy mod takes you to a new place where you’ve moved to forget all about what happened with the Neighbor in the past.
However, there really is no escape here.
Kindly Keyin Garry's Mod
Well… you will find that out soon after installing this mod.
The visions have never left, and never will – no matter how far you run.
