Reviews
The Baby in Yellow is proof that babysitting should probably come with a hazard pay bonus. At first, it seems simple enough: feed the baby, change its diaper, put it to bed, and try to survive the night. Then the baby starts doing things that babies definitely should not be capable of doing. The horror is mixed with a surprising amount of comedy, which makes the game more entertaining than genuinely terrifying. Watching a tiny yellow baby teleport around the house and cause absolute chaos is ridiculous in the best way. The environments are creepy, the atmosphere works well, and there's plenty of weird stuff to discover as the game gets progressively more unhinged. It's not the scariest horror game out there, but it's a fun little experience with a memorable premise. **7/10 — babysitting went from "how hard can it be?" to "WHY DOES THE BABY HAVE TELEKINESIS?"**
