How to play: beginner guide
Knock, scare, steal, get packages home, open them, Equip Best, and train Scare vs Speed.
First loop
Day one is one full delivery: read the board, knock, scare, steal, get the package inside your fence, let Minions finish it, open, then Equip Best. Scare opens the door. Speed wins the run home. Costumes and auras only multiply training.
Step by step
- 1. Read the street board
Walk the road and check the zone name plus Recommended Scare and Speed on the board. Common Noob houses start at Scare 10+ and Speed 1. Uncommon Grandpa boards jump to Scare 800+ and Speed 900 — do not treat that jump as a Common tip. Watch your scare % before you commit. Zero percent means train Scare first.

Press E on the door to Knock, then Scare, then Steal when the neighbor drops. Same key for the whole sequence. If the scare fails, train more Scare or pick an easier house on the same street.

Carry the package back to Base. It only counts once it is inside the fence — drop it on the street and Minions never start. Neighbors chase; getting caught can knock the package free or send it back. Pick it up and sprint straight home.

Minions chip package HP for you; hit it yourself to finish faster. When it says Ready to open, press E. A Common Snow Globe pays $18/s. Equip Best fills Active slots so Items keep paying, including offline. Claim new Index rows when they pop. Sell junk at the red Sell circle. If the yard is full, new Items sit in the hotbar with no income until you free a slot.

While Minions chew a package, stand on the Scare Trainer and the treadmill. Costumes multiply Scare training; auras multiply Speed training. Ghost starts at 1.5× Scare train; Skeleton is an early 2× buy. Vampire (3×) and Purple Aura (3× Speed train) come next once trainer and treadmill already pay enough to multiply.

When Cash is tight, spend on Minions and Base slots first, then trainer and treadmill levels, then big costumes and auras. Failed scares mean more Scare training. Lost packages on the run mean more Speed. Packages stacking at Base mean better Minions. Full yard means more slots. Cleared doors restock — farm them while you catch up. Street end is Nightmare at Scare 250M+ / Speed 280M; do not rush past boards you cannot clear.
Full costume, aura, and trainer tables live on Equipment. Zone boards sit on Zones.
Scare vs Speed
Scare or Speed first?
Raise whichever board number is blocking the next house. Failed scares need Scare. Lost packages or chases on the run home need Speed. Train both while Minions work so one stat does not stall everything.
Minion or costume first?
When Cash is tight, Minion and Base slots first. Costumes only multiply trainer reps; they do not open packages alone.
What is the bottleneck right now?
Packages pile up waiting → Minions. Door keeps failing → Scare Trainer (costumes later). Caught on the road → treadmill / Speed. Yard full → Base slots. Spend Cash on the blocker, not the flashiest shop card.
How to make money fast
Money speed comes from placed Items, safer deliveries, faster package opens, and staying on boards you can clear — not from buying the most expensive costume first.
- Keep scare-steal deliveries running without idle packages sitting outside the fence.
- Sprint home after every steal so chases do not wipe the haul.
- Equip Best after every open; sell junk at the red Sell circle.
- Upgrade Minions so Epic+ cabinets finish while you train.
- Claim Index rewards when new Items unlock.
- Buy trainer and treadmill levels, then early Vampire / Purple, before late shop cards.
- Push to the next zone only when the board Recommended Scare and Speed are in reach.
Controls & HUD
- E: Knock, Scare, Steal, pick up packages, open Ready packages, and most upgrade prompts
- HUD: Bottom-left: cash, Scare, Speed. Left edge: Index and Shop. Hotbar shows a held Package.
Watch outs
- Packages only process after they enter your fence. Do not drop them on the street and walk away.
- Getting caught while carrying a package returns it. A successful scare alone does not finish the loop.
- Costumes and auras multiply training only. They do not add panel Scare or Speed by themselves.
- Common is Scare 10+ / Speed 1. Uncommon is Scare 800+ / Speed 900. Do not treat 800 as a Common tip.
- A full Base parks new Items in the hotbar with no income until you place or Equip Best into free slots.
- Heavy Epic+ packages want Minion upgrades before you keep stacking costume Cash.
FAQ
What is the first loop in Scare Your Neighbor?
Read the board, Knock, Scare, Steal, carry into your fence without getting caught, wait for Minions (or help), open when Ready, then Equip Best and sell junk.
How do I make money fast?
Keep packages processing, Equip Best, upgrade Minions and Base slots, train during open windows, and only then spend on large costumes or auras.
Scare first or Speed first?
Fix the board requirement that is failing. Scare for failed door scares. Speed for package runs home and chases. Train both while Minions work.
What happens if a neighbor catches me?
The package goes back. Train more Speed or pick a closer house, then try again.
Do costumes raise my Scare stat?
They multiply Scare Trainer gains only. Panel Scare comes from training reps and Index claims.
Where do I train?
Scare Trainer is the cyan dummy pod in your base. The treadmill raises Speed. Auras multiply treadmill steps; costumes multiply Scare Trainer reps.
What does Free Gift do?
Open the green hub circle for Free Speed + Scare. Like the game, Favorite it, join the community group, then Claim for 5,000 Speed and 5,000 Scare while the limited offer is up.
Can I farm the same house?
Yes. After a scare, many neighbors restock. Use that while you train toward the next board.
Does money continue offline?
Yes. Placed Items keep producing. Rejoin for an offline money toast based on what is Active.
