The Baby in Yellow
You take on a seemingly routine job caring for an infant, but this is no ordinary child. As night falls, the baby's behavior grows disturbingly peculiar, and your duties twist into a sequence of eerie challenges. Each task you complete peels back another layer of the household's strange history, revealing hints of something far darker beneath the surface. The game blends classic point-and-click puzzles with a mounting sense of dread. Your choices affect how the night unfolds, and every creak or giggle could signal a new surprise. With its mix of macabre humor and genuine tension, the experience keeps you guessing whether you're the caretaker or the test subject. Can you piece together the clues and make it to sunrise without becoming part of the mystery?
