Back in the day, children’s television show The Friendly Neighborhood lit up TV screens and the smiling faces of tots all across the world. Fans loved the show’s colorful cast of friendly fuzzy pals who took them on educational adventures, teaching them valuable life lessons and delighting them with fun games.
Sadly, the show’s popularity waned over time, and the studio had to ultimately shut its doors. Then, one night years later, the show suddenly reappears for a surprise encore… are those puppets eating each other!?
My Friendly Neighborhood Key Features:
- Face the Neighborhorde: Say hello to a horde of new friends in Neighborhorde Mode, a free update where you’ll ward off a relentless series of puppet pals. How long can you avoid being hugged (eaten)? Let’s find out!
- Friends or Foe-zz?: Meet and greet a colorful cast of puppet friends turned adversaries (and maybe turned friends again!)
- Scenes of Explicit Vibes and No-Gore: Non-linear, classically-inspired survival horror gameplay with a grid-based real-time inventory
