Despite being a stealth-horror game, Hello Neighbor possesses several traits that can be framed as educational:

It was the janitor. Mr. Calloway. A quiet man who wore gardening gloves in summer. Who never spoke. Who lived alone.

: If your school-issued Chromebook allows it, the most "high-quality" experience comes from installing the official Hello Neighbor Android App via the Play Store.

For students around the globe, the school day can often feel like a stealth mission itself: dodging hall monitors, sneaking a glance at your phone, and trying to find a spare moment of entertainment during a free period or study hall. Enter Hello Neighbor , the stealth horror hit that puts you in the shoes of a curious kid trying to unlock the secrets hidden in a neighbor’s basement.

However, a word of advice: The Neighbor punishes you for being sloppy. Similarly, your school IT admin punishes sloppy browsing. Use headphones (the creaking floorboards give you away). Close the tab when the teacher walks by. And never, ever download anything.

Good luck, detective. The basement secrets are waiting.
