Despite not actually managing to solve any of the puzzles, I was pretty delighted to poke around and get a feeling for the intricacy of Hello Neighbor 2’s level design. The Hello Neighbor 2 demo presents a rather compact map, focusing on a two-story house with a porch and the surrounding grounds. I scampered out of the barn and off to the big clearing outside, where I got my first look at the house I was meant to be sneaking around in.
Still, I eventually learned that I could throw a rock to break a glass case containing one of several gears required to open the big door, and that alone was a victory worth celebrating. It took me a few minutes to figure out the physics and inventory systems. I woke up in a barn, dazed and confused, with nothing more than a crowbar and some tchotchkes to bang together until a giant door unsealed itself so I could meander off to the great outdoors and, ultimately, into my neighbor’s home.
The first moments of my Hello Neighbor 2 demo were rather humbling.
I went hands-on with a demo of Hello Neighbor 2 at PAX West several weeks ago, and what I discovered was a delightful 30-minute chunk of tinkering and toying amid the hiding and frightened scurrying that shortly followed.
