Neighborhood

I was reading through an old issue of Dragon when I spied this advertisement. A quick search online revealed very little about Neighborhood beyond the fact that it was released in 1982. Does anyone know any more about this game? I wonder if it was anything like Alma Mater when it comes to its treatment of the subject matter, or if it opted instead for a less tongue-in-cheek approach? The ad's focus on throwing rocks, snowballs, and mashed potatoes(?) at your friends suggests it's probably a humorous RPG, but who can say?

    I have been looking for a copy of Neighborhood or any information at all about it for years.

      Again, I'm sure the author would answer your questions if you ask politely. Apparently been designing games steadily for about forty years now.

    I contacted the author. Haven’t heard back just yet.
