Hello, Neighbor! vs Yandere Simulator
Hello, Neighbor!
Hello, Neighbor! is a first-person horror/adventure game where you play a newly moved-in suburbian who noticed that their grumpy and unfriendly neighbor is being all suspicious. Your curiousity got the better of you and you took it upon yourself to play detective, break into your neighbor’s house (hopefully undetected) and find out what’s going on.Now, Hello, Neighbor! is not only a game that's unique because no one has ever done something like this before; the game also has a lot of surprising depth to it especially when it comes to figuring out the best way to break into your neighbor's place without getting caught or when your neighbor made an unexpected detour and you're just seconds from being found out. Not to mention, the AI in this game - your neighbor - actually is quite devious too. It can learn from your previous successful attempts and adapt accordingly. As a result, the game gradually becomes increasingly difficult and unpredictably challenging even for the best players.
Not to mention, it’s not every day you could plot how to break into your neighbor’s home, albeit a virtual one, and actually go and carry it out without having to worry about getting caught trespassing and slapped with a hefty fine. If you're interested, you can try the game's demo out for free.
Yandere Simulator
Yandere Simulator is a very unique stealth-based simulation game that involves a Yandere girl or boy whom you'll be playing as and a senpai that you are creepily stalking. Despite its apparently romantic theme, the game gets dark really quickly when you realize that you will need to get rid of competitors who are gunning for your senpai by any means necessary... and yes, that sometimes means you might have to kill or at least socially destroy your rival. However, there are many factors in play, for example, you can't do anything remotely evil while your senpai is near enough to notice, or that your reputation will decrease whenever you are spotted doing anything incriminating by anybody at the high school you attend. You'll also gain access to a special skill, Yandere Vision, which allows you to have a bit of an unfair advantage since you'll get to see through walls and important figures and objects will be automatically highlighted.Due to the nature of the game, it is safe to say that this is not a game for children or maybe even impressionable teens. However, the concept that the game is based on is quite interesting to say the least and although the game is still in its alpha, the game seemed to have garnered a rather large amount of interest from the gaming community. The game's sandbox build is currently free-to-play but the full game is expected to be a buy-to-play.
