Neighbours From Hell by David Whyld

Everyone has bad neighbours. It's just one of those things. But surely no one in the whole wide world has neighbours as bad as yours. For you live next door to the Crumms. But are they really the sadistic murderers you suspect them of being? Or is the truth something different?

I played the ADRIFT version of this years ago. One of the first ADRIFT games I ever played, actually. It's funny in kind of a morbid way, and the plot is a simple one that involves you searching your neighbors' house for evidence of a crime...and there is a LOT of evidence, but you can't go to the police until you find it all. Attention to detail is a definite requirement to beat this.

Anyway, still fun even after all this time, but David Whyld was an extremely prolific author back then and many of his other games are better.

...and I'm not sure what the deal is with all the extremely confused people below, I'm just going to assume that Quest users in 2013 weren't very bright.

RoNa, amrzaben, Rorzzzn...I know this is kind of confusing, but bear with me here.

First, log in. Then, click the 'Play Online' button. There you go!

Or, if you want to get REALLY advanced: install the Quest interpreter, download the file, then double click it. The game will then start. It's amazing how that works, right? Like magic or something! Anyway, enjoy! ^^

I am enjoying this game and know what I need to do or get but don't know how to get it... for example, I need to get the food from the ceiling, I have to stepladder to do so however it wont let me :/

also, Happy Grace, at some weird points in the game you have to type up or down to get somewhere, like to get to the cellar you have to type down, it tells you when those moments come when it says: "exits lie: west, north, south, east, down, up" but you have to type it, you can't click an arrow to go down

Comment Happy Grace

I can't get into the cellar. I am annoyed, because I don't think I can finish without getting into the cellar. Help?

Comment Happy Grace

I find it annoying that you can't see the objects in the right hand side, but otherwise it's a really good game.
I agree with:
Kingmorgoth,Anonymus,kenzi,Marshal Trig, Andrew Trewin,Michael (comment)
I disagree with:
Josh,emojo,Michael (review),Jenders.
There. I made a list. I won't tell you straight what I think, I make you read all the other reviews and comments. Ha ha, I am so evil. Meh. No stars yet, haven't finished it. When I do, I will review it.

Dude quit your friggin bashing man, I rated the game farely and STILL get bashed!.

Review Andrew Trewin

02 Apr 2008

Still, it completely obliterates anything you could ever make. At least we can thank you for not being a complete immature idiot and writing things like:

This is the worst game I'v seen. A very bad game. I suggest to you people: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME. SAVE YOURSELF TIME. ITS BAD!!!!!

And giving it a one star rating like most of the other retards David has spoken with have.

As for the actual game, I pretty much agree with what everyone else here has said. Original, fun, not too easy yet not too hard, not too long yet not too short. All the good elements of a great Text Adventure game.

The story is ok, but the game is to short.
the game is very simple, but over all It's
not bad for It's length, just an easy game.

this is a very annoying game.
i dont want to read the book.
i dont mind reading the blurb.
it does have a pretty interesting story.
i dont realy think it is worth playing.

i've played quite a few of these quest games,and this is one of the better ones. i liked the basic premise. i seemed to have got further than most of the previous reviewers but still cant get past bob! a little help would be much appreciated. anyway keep up the good work. bring on the next challenge.

Review Marshal Trigg

10 Jan 2005

I am so very stuck. All the cabinets need keys, but I can't find any key. So far, this is the evidence I have found:

spine
clippings
pictures
glass eye
foot
ear

It seems every room has one purpose. I have used all the rooms for something or another. I can't do anything else now. And I only have 32 points out of a hundred. Help...

I'm pretty new at these games, but overall I enjoy yours, it actually gives you a purpose. however I've gotten stuck kind of easily, but that could just be because I'm new...

That's an odd question. You don't know how to play an ASL file? You should not be using Quest if you do not understand that.

How come you can't go into the cellar? I've tried everything. "Go down steps", "climb down steps", "go to cellar", etc.

it's not to bad a game and i think it has a brilliant and origanal idea just need a bit of work on making it more detailed and improving the script to make it more interesting although i haven't finished the game i've probably done enough to write a review with maybe time for a version 2?
