Controls 9/10

While the game is considered for a multiplayer mode, you still have some problems when all the players start running and exploring the house. It may glitch from time to time. If you get frozen in the middle of the room, it is always a bad idea to look back. The Neighbor is probably somewhere around you. In this game Neighbor can kill you, so you have to be careful and learn all the tools you can use fast.

This is an evergreen game. You can always come back to it with the same people or with new ones. The game picks the Neighbor randomly, and it is always a mystery. However, once you find the keys you will know where to find them. At the same time, the Neighbor can always be smarter than you.
