Baldi's Basics Classic is a unique horror game that takes you on a bizarre adventure. With inspiration drawn from poor-quality edutainment games of the 90s, it's definitely not your typical horror game. It’s deceivingly simple but incredibly challenging. The game sets you on a quest to collect seven notebooks and escape from the school without being caught by Baldi. It's far from an educational game, but one that'll keep you on your toes.
Highlight
Baldi's Basics Classic has two modes - story and endless, each offering a different level of difficulty and thrill. In story mode, you need to collect seven notebooks and make it out of the school while evading Baldi whose speed increases with each notebook collected. Endless mode tests your endurance with Baldi coming at you non-stop. The more notebooks you collect while keeping Baldi's speed low, the better your score.
Learning the game's unique mechanics, mastering the use of items scattered throughout the school, and figuring out how to use Baldi's friends to your advantage are crucial to outsmarting Baldi.
The game's charm also comes from its familiarity, taking players back to the 90s with its retro-styled graphics.
This is an official port of the original game, fully optimized with touch screen controls and controller support, adjustable to your preference in the options menu.
