About

super interesting storyline and easy controls. game is super lore rich and just generally super fun
holy jesus ever since this was jusr=t an unreal engine it looked really cool now ,ook at it its BADASS still the sad part is in act 4 when you have to check the babies they dont show the creepy face anymore and plus most of the npcs aka newt and baby in yellow they just skip their animation like they tick but still the game is super good i really cant wait for the final act :)
This is a wild game, highly entertaining, well worth the money. Whatever you think is going to happen next, you're wrong.
Well, I think that The Baby in Yellow is the best game in the world. As a matter of fact, I played it for three hours. Three hours! It is so fun. I just keep restarting the game and restarting the game and restarting the game. I played the game at least four times and I beat it all.
Very fun and the puzzles are tricky, but not too tricky. It was fun to play and the baby was absolutely terrifying
