"Bad Neighbor" is a live-action security guard simulation and deduction game.

Game Description

  • The story takes place in Jin Xiao Apartment, an old building on the verge of demolition.

  • A succession of bizarre murders strikes the complex: a female writer hangs, an editor drowns, a security guard plummets, and a resident is stabbed. The murderer, known as "The Frogman," publicly provokes the world by posting confessions online.

  • As the demolition deadline approaches, the truth behind a serial murder case spanning the New Year is about to be revealed amidst security monitors and rampant rumors.

Game Core

  • This is a modern urban fable of voyeurism, deception, and trust.

  • Caught in a web woven by surveillance feeds and online rumors, a clandestine investigation into the truth begins.

  • The screen becomes your eyes, the mouse your weapon. The truth might just be hiding in the very next frame.

Immersive experience

  • Cinematic Immersion: Live-action footage creates a deeply engaging, movie-like immersive experience.

  • Atmospheric Soundscapes: Original electronic music and ambient sound effects perfectly render the complex, interwoven emotions of suspense, tension, and isolation.

  • Digital Voyeurism: The narrative unfolds entirely through surveillance feeds, computer screens, and a first-person perspective, delivering a highly immersive "digital voyeur" experience.

Features a wide variety of complex characters

  • Players will take on the role of an undercover journalist masquerading as a night-shift security guard, interacting with various tenants, property management staff, and your direct superior.

  • Every character harbors their own secrets, motives, and lies. Beyond the reach of the surveillance cameras, who are they really? Are they victims, accomplices, or the killer themselves?

In-Depth Investigation

  • Dive fully into the investigation—the game features a comprehensive "Frame Detective" system and a Clue Notebook to help you organize your logic.

  • The core gameplay revolves around gathering evidence and formulating deductions. With a highly player-driven deduction process, every single action you take serves one ultimate purpose: piecing together the truth.
