Baldi's Basics v1.4.3

Baldi's Basics v1.4.3 is a unique and unsettling horror game that draws its inspiration from the strange and often poorly made educational games of the 1990s. While it may initially appear to be an innocent or even nostalgic trip back to school-themed learning software, it quickly reveals itself to be something far more bizarre and disturbing. This game is not designed to teach any real academic skills, despite its educational facade, and instead serves as a surreal and often tense experience that blends horror elements with unexpected humor and chaotic gameplay mechanics.

In Baldi's Basics, your primary objective is to explore a school building and locate seven hidden notebooks scattered throughout the classrooms and hallways. Once you have collected all seven, your final task is to find the exit and escape the school. However, this mission is made increasingly difficult by Baldi, the stern and relentless schoolteacher who begins to chase you after your first mistake. The more notebooks you collect, the faster and more aggressive Baldi becomes, turning the simple task of navigating the school into a nerve-wracking challenge.

To survive and succeed, players must become familiar with the school’s layout and learn how to use the various items found along the way. These tools can help distract Baldi or provide brief moments of safety. Equally important is understanding the behavior of the other characters who roam the school. These characters, often referred to as Baldi’s friends, each have their own rules and quirks. Interacting with them strategically can either help or hinder your progress depending on how well you use them to your advantage.

Mastering the controls is essential for survival. Use the WASD keys to move around, Shift to run when you need to escape quickly, and the Spacebar to glance behind you without losing momentum. The Left Mouse Button allows you to interact with objects. With careful planning, quick reflexes, and a solid understanding of the school’s strange logic, you might just make it out alive.
