Hello, Neighbor! vs Past Cure
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.
Past Cure
Past Cure is a story-driven thriller/adventure game where you play as a Syrian ex-army veteran, Ian, who was kidnapped and subjected to horrific, and very much illegal, scientific experiments. As a result, Ian has gained superhuman mental capabilities, including the ability to conjure astral projections and use mind bashes to destroy objects, in addition to his already intensive military training from being a soldier. However, all of this comes at a terrible cost - Ian's mind is destabilized and only the effects of an experimental yet powerful drug called Blue is able to help him keep his mental demons at bay.Although the game contains game mechanics like shooting, melee combat (boxing) and stealth, Past Cure is still primarily a story-oriented adventure game. Progression here is pretty linear, as most single narrative games are, and there aren't a lot of depth when it comes to its game features, with the sole exception of its intriguing storyline and several puzzle-like scenarios. The atmosphere generated in the game is astounding though! The music, especially during creepy scenes, makes your skin crawl, and the game features plenty of brilliantly edited cutscenes with some cool cinematographic effects.
So, despite the negative reviews on Steam, Past Cure is a really well-made interactive experience, story-wise. However, if you're expecting anything else, such as a hardcore stealth-based game, then you might feel like the game's a huge let-down. At least now you know what you can expect before you purchase the game!
