Our take on The Baby In Yellow
Rather than presenting babysitting as a calm domestic routine, the game turns ordinary care duties into the structure of a horror story. Feeding, cleaning, cooking, and bedtime sit alongside puzzles, pursuits, supernatural events, and threats involving the baby’s control.
What is The Baby In Yellow?
The Baby In Yellow is a comedic horror title about caring for a strange infant whose actions turn paranormal.
Its 11 chapters span 3 acts, with chores such as feeding, diaper changing, story reading, making cheese toast, and bedtime. Puzzles, pursuit scenes, and consistent surroundings accompany a tale about Hastur and souls held captive. Locating and releasing those souls can provide cheats including Big Head Mode, while the child seeks to dominate the player and devour their soul. Robert Chambers’s The King in Yellow provided inspiration, and the game was made during a 48-hour game jam.
