For years, the colorful cast of The Friendly Neighborhood delighted audiences across the globe with their cooky capers and educational adventures. However, as time went on and interest waned, the production studio found themselves out of money and closed their doors for good.

    Toy sales would dwindle, and birthday balloons and cakes would find new mascots. In time, the once household names would fade into increasingly niche fandoms. Until one night years later, the studio unexpectedly clicks back to life and starts broadcasting The Friendly Neighborhood. TV sets across the globe flicker for a moment before the familiar puppets return for a surprise encore!

    Play as Gordon, a repairman sent to get to the bottom of this disturbing dilemma. Fend off puppets and solve puzzles in this survival horror adventure.    … Expand

    Overall, MFN is an excellent survival horror title that attempts to, and mostly succeeds at, changing up the standard survival horror formula. While it could stand to have a few more teeth, I was still pleasantly on the edge of my seat the entire time. In a genre with too many developers copying each other’s homework, My Friendly Neighborhood offers a break from the norm with color and charm, and I suspect that fans of survival horror will want to play along.

    My Friendly Neighborhood is the kind of creepy I like; it takes the mundane and twists it just enough to feel threatening. It’s also the kind of game that wears its inspirations on its sleeve, a silly mix of Resident Evil and Sesame Street with a hint of Bioshock. Which, unfortunately, extends to a final act that doesn’t quite live up to the promise of its earlier chapters. Regardless, there’s still a lot to love about this fuzzy fright fest, and if you’re a less violent Resident Evil variation, or simply something as silly as it is spooky, you can trust the Szymanski’s to tell you how to get to My Friendly Neighborhood.
