It’s a terrible day in the neighbourhood

Just a quick note this New Year’s Eve Eve to remind you all that Epic Games Store is continuing its 12 Days of Christmas promotion, offering up free games every 24 hours for the… well… 12 days of Christmas. Like that song. FIVE GOLD RINGS. That one.

Today’s free title is Dynamic Pixels’ 2017 releaseHello Neighbor, a stealth title that sees the player in the shoes of a curious young fella, who must nose around the house of the fella next door, concerned that there may be misdeeds afoot. It’s actually surprisingly dark, despite its cartoonish appearance.
