Who says you can’t go home again? In Hello Neighbor: Nicky’s Diaries, guide a grown-up Nicky Roth—the star of the original Hello Neighbor—back to that infamous house of heebie-jeebies. Carefully explore the sinister neighbor’s sprawling abode to find clues about the fate of your childhood chum. Bit by bit, a shocking story unfolds; can you sneak, snoop, and sleuth your way to the end?

What we love: Evading your sweater-wearing nemesis. Staying hidden by disabling security cameras with EMP bombs and jumping to second-story windows using spring-loaded boots isn’t easy. But when you actually give the neighbor the slip—outrunning him, bonking him with boxes, or binding him to the floor with glue—it’s a serious rush. Stick around!

Quick tip: Not sure where to go next? Try the x-ray glasses! They don’t just reveal the location of keys and other crucial items; they also let you see the neighbor through walls and floors. Sneaky!

Meet the creator: Netherlands-based Eerie Guest Studios are the makers of the Hello Neighbor franchise, which includes a prequel (Hello Neighbor: Hide and Seek) and a multiplayer spin-off (Secret Neighbor). There’s even a book series that delves into the neighbor’s tragic origin story.
