Baldi’s Basics is a quirky horror parody where you must collect 7 notebooks, outsmart Baldi, and escape school. Beware, every wrong answer makes him faster!
Baldi’s Basics, also known as Baldi’s Basics in Education and Learning, is an indie parody survival game inspired by oddball 90s edutainment titles like Sonic’s Schoolhouse and I.M. Meen. Created by developer Micah McGonigal (Mystman12), the game blends humor, retro-style graphics, and horror elements into a unique experience.
Your main goal? Collect seven scattered notebooks inside the school and make your escape before Baldi, the strict ruler-wielding teacher, catches you. With strange characters, bizarre puzzles, and a school full of tricks, Baldi’s Basics has become a cult classic among fans of indie horror games.
A STRANGE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Baldi's Basics revolves around solving math problems, collecting notebooks, and navigating through a maze-like school filled with characters that can either help or hinder your progress. Each time you find a notebook, Baldi presents a set of math questions: answer correctly, and you buy yourself some time. Answer incorrectly, and Baldi gets angrier, faster, and much harder to avoid.
Along the way, you will encounter quirky classmates and faculty members. Some will slow you down, block your path, or drag you into activities that make survival even harder. Items like candy bars, sodas, scissors, and keys can be found around the school to give you a much-needed edge. The tension builds steadily as you get closer to the final notebook, turning a simple “learning” game into a frantic escape mission.
