For years, the colorful cast of The Friendly Neighborhood delighted audiences across the globe with their cooky capers and educational adventures. However, as time went on and interest waned, the production studio found themselves out of money and closed their doors for good. Toy sales would dwindle, and birthday balloons and cakes would find new mascots. In time, the once household names would fade into increasingly niche fandoms. Until one night years later, the studio unexpectedly clicks back to life and starts broadcasting The Friendly Neighborhood. TV sets across the globe flicker for a moment before the familiar puppets return for a surprise encore! But this isn't your typical family-friendly holiday special... are those puppets eating each other!?","110212\u002Fmy-friendly-neighborhood-cover.jpg","110212\u002Fmy-friendly-neighborhood-header.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.youtube.com\u002Fwatch?v=H5D7GoAzytE","2023-07-18",null,172023,"my-friendly-neighborhood",[18,23,26],{"company":19,"developed":21,"published":22},{"name":20},"John Szymanski",true,false,{"company":24,"developed":22,"published":21},{"name":25},"DreadXP",{"company":27,"developed":21,"published":22},{"name":28},"Evan Szymanski",[30,31,32],"Shooter","Adventure","Indie",[34,35,36,37,38],"PC (Microsoft Windows)","PlayStation 4","Xbox One","PlayStation 5","Xbox Series X|S",[40,56,70,82,95],{"id":41,"author":42,"outlet":45,"summary":51,"review_url":52,"review_date":53,"original_score":54,"normalized_score":55},100,{"id":43,"name":44},12,"Tyler Chancey",{"id":46,"logo":47,"name":48,"website_url":49,"score_format":50},1,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FTechRaptor%20Logo.png","TechRaptor","https:\u002F\u002Ftechraptor.net","10","While My Friendly Neighborhood is rough in several spots, Its solid survival horror gameplay, dedication to its premise, and great replay value make it must play.","https:\u002F\u002Ftechraptor.net\u002Fgaming\u002Freviews\u002Fmy-friendly-neighborhood-review-c-is-for-creepy","2023-07-17","8",80,{"id":57,"author":58,"outlet":61,"summary":66,"review_url":67,"review_date":68,"original_score":69,"normalized_score":55},62286,{"id":59,"name":60},3923,"Kim Snaith",{"id":62,"logo":63,"name":64,"website_url":65,"score_format":50},27,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGameSpew-Logo.jpg","GameSpew","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespew.com","If Resident Evil and Sesame Street had a baby, My Friendly Neighborhood would be it.

Gordon's performance is pitch perfect, nailing the disgruntled technician archetype, but Ricky steals the show with its perfectly unhinged delivery that's as lovable as it is threatening. The same go for the puppets as well, which are introduced almost immediately. After leaving Ricky, My Friendly Neighborhood decides to have one of the puppets running across the lot and into a building. With almost no fanfare or build-up, Gordon enters the studio to hear the puppet saying random lines that would be perfect for a children's show, only to descend into something disturbing and off-kilter within seconds. No matter what they say, the puppets always sound jovial - and that eerie, inappropriate-to-the-setting delivery establishes an unforgettable atmosphere.","https:\u002F\u002Fscreenrant.com\u002F\u002Fmy-friendly-neighborhood-pc-review\u002F","unscored",{"id":96,"author":97,"outlet":100,"summary":105,"review_url":106,"review_date":107,"original_score":108,"normalized_score":109},100445,{"id":98,"name":99},8955,"Kyle Nicol",{"id":101,"logo":102,"name":103,"website_url":104,"score_format":50},138,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FWayTooManyGames.png","WayTooManyGames","https:\u002F\u002Fwaytoomany.games\u002F","Ever since the release of the original Five Night at Freddy’s, the Mascot Horror genre has been one that has slowly grown over the years.
