Gameplay: The gameplay is very simple and intuitive which makes Neighbors from Hell fun, but there is no depth to the gameplay. You make no decisions—you have to put the right item at the right location at the right time. Half of the game is scrolling the pointer across the screen to determine what items are clickable. While moving your character around is intuitive, the point-and-click structure of setting the booby traps is so simple that it leaves little to be desired. Most of the fun of puzzle games is using things in unique ways to solve problems. There is no uniqueness here—you have to do exactly what the game developers intended to succeed. My score for Gameplay is a 5, evenly split—an 8 for the control scheme, a 3 for the strategy and lack of replayability. Graphics: 800x600. Nothing special, nothing horrible. The claymation like graphics are appealing, and some of the neighbor reactions did make me laugh out loud, but as simple as the game is, more complex graphics should be included. Sound: The best part of the game. The laugh track is hilarious and reminds me of sitcoms from the 70’s. The crazy music fits right in. The sound effects are weak in some areas and good in some others. The zany sounds give the game a lighthearted feel that meshes well with the gameplay and the graphics. Value: Lousy—plain and simple. The game costs $40.00 and it took me just a single afternoon to complete it. There is no replayability value and no open-ended explore-and-set-up-your-neighbor traps like there were in Spy vs. Spy. The quote on the box mentioning over 100 setups you could trap your neighbor with sounded intriguing, but without allowing the player to decide what to set when, the number of traps to set is meaningless. This is another cesspit from JoWood. I’d shy away from their productions in the future. Reviewer’s Tilt: A very shallow game that is nothing but a waste of money from a developer that is earning a reputation of a confidence artist. It has its moments, can be genuinely entertaining, but is much, much too short for $40 and is so simple it feels like an extended tutorial for a much larger game. If spending $40 on a three-hour game that is nothing more than following this instruction and that instruction, Neighbors from Hell may be for you. If not, there are other games much more worth your hard-earned money.
