Baba Is You

I have 50 hours played on Switch.

This is literally the best puzzle game ever created.

puzzles can be very hard but they are also very fun. game is super cute and i love baba and all its frainds:3

I have not left any reviews on Steam before but this game is amazing and really deserves one. Yes, the puzzles are hard and sometimes require a long time before you can catch up with the solutions, but the idea behind the puzzles is genius and gives you a crazy amount of satisfaction when you manage to solve them.

I genuinely recommend this game to anyone who loves logic puzzles that offer freedom in solutions.

If you enjoy a challenge with puzzle games, you will enjoy this. By far one of the most difficult ones I've dealt with in a while!
Every puzzle is surprisingly different from the last - there is rarely a theme followed. Mechanics, once briefly introduced, are ignored for some time before creeping back on you when you're finally desperate enough to reexplore them. The game is also kind enough to offer a step-by-step undo feature, as sometimes it is a single step that lead to failure.
I'm proud to say I haven't finished this game, no where near it, in fact. It's reached a point early on already where a single puzzle can take me 15-20 minutes, and it WILL be getting harder. Definitely a game I'll be willing to keep in the background for rainy days for the satisfaction of finishing a single level.

Either I'm too dumb for this game (very possible) or the rules are too... variable? It's hard to tell what some of the verb commands mean (e.g., "make"). I'm a fan of programming games but even though I've completed several others, I've been stuck on this one for years. Definitely not for beginners. Or intermediates.

It's a puzzle game with what I think is called abstract hierarchical logic, meaning that certain commands for solving a problem are processed before others. You have to make sure you understand how the game processes the solutions. New objects are also generated based on the direction you placed them into a square, so you might have to undo a few previous steps to place something into a certain square from the correct angle, so that it can do stuff like duplicate itself in the correct direction.

All of these ideas make a lot more sense when you see them in motion.

This game is fun, unique, but challenging as well.

This unique but genius designed puzzle game is a timeless classic and a it's a game I always come back to. The game really challenges you to think outside of the box. There is a lot of variety in levels and creative puzzle solving.

Be prepared, the game can be HARD, especially on later levels. But very rewarding once you find a solution.

There is also a level editor with a ton of fun designed levels by other players you can try.

An incredible and unique experience, the challenge never stops and constantly evolves

Baba Is You is an incredible game, perhaps even the best puzzle game ever created. At first glance, it may seem simple, but after a few levels, the player faces difficulties.

The difficulty increases rapidly, and there are times when you just sit there and can't figure out how to complete the next level. But, surprisingly, it is this moment of "misunderstanding" that turns into real pleasure when you finally solve the riddle. Every decision here is a small victory. You don't just solve puzzles here — you become part of the gameplay, where you control the logic of what is happening.

If you love puzzles, then Baba Is You is just a MUST HAVE. Even if sometimes it seems that the solution does not come, be sure that in the end you will be able to find the right way, and the satisfaction of solving the problem will be worth it

One of the greatest games of all time. Genuinely cannot think of a better puzzle game than this, it pushes the boundaries in complexity and thinking of solutions in a friendly environment that pushes you into the edge in the endgame. I actually have no words to say beyond, wow.

Baba is you is the best puzzle game I have experienced so far. A few years back when I first tried the game the experience was largely negative as I was stuck at several levels without any insight. Until recently, I always believed puzzle games are not for me as they can easily frustrate me, and it is hard to find a balance between the joy of finding solutions and the mental struggles involved, The game experience this time, however, was totally different as me and a good friend of mine played together via discord. We'd test out different hypotheses, offered each other insights, and of course struggled at getting things done. I was finally touched by the magic and charisma of Baba Is You.
Talking back about the game, I just adored the game dynamics and innovative design: the combination of box pushing and coding snippets are fine tuned just too intricately in the game. Few games allow players to experiment everything possible and interact with every element in it in a logical and meaningful way, and I could only think of Breath of the Wild and Crypt of the Necrodancer besides Baba Is You. I also just love meta games that challenge every rule in the game, and Baba just did a perfect, and even layered, job in uncovering what rules can be perceived and utilized. When I looked at the images from the gallery, I had an immediate flashback to The Witness, where I sat there for hours watching those Easter videos. They both made me feel smart and good about myself, and feel admiration for the creators behind them.
Thank you for such a masterpiece!

One of the best puzzle games of all time. Such an amazing concept beautifully executed, pushed every limit of the concept to the edge. By god does it get hard though, at some point I suggest just looking up hints and solutions to get past a puzzle if you don't know. There's so much more to see beyond a couple of tricky solutions.

Really relaxing and satisfying game. Currently unhealthily addicted. Some of the puzzles have dumb solutions but most of them make you feel really clever when you solve them. Good game if you want to practice thinking outside the box.

Really fun game. It's frustrating, challenging, and addicting all at the same time. I never knew I had the "patience" to stubbornly work on a puzzle I'm stuck on for wayyy too long before this game.

I think it's safe to say it's the best puzzle game ever made, the main gameplay concept is just too powerful for any other game to look on the same level, and the puzzles use it's mechanics perfectly with plenty of challenge.

Incredible puzzle game. Great game for a break between giant immersive games or games that require crazy mechanics. This game plays on logic and expands your mind to possibilities that you never thought would be possible given the constraints, but you can change the rules and find creative solutions.

One of the great sokoban descendents. Enjoyable when it focuses on high level rule construction instead of block pushing interactions.

Baba Is You is such an incredible game, maybe even the best puzzle game ever made. Even though it gets really hard quite fast, so that you might stare at one level for ages without having a clue, eventually you will beat it and all of that is exactly why this game is so amazing and fun!

If you are into puzzle games at all this is a MUST BUY!

I really enjoy playing Baba is you.
The levels are very easy at the beginning but you soon come across levels you have no idea how to solve. Wonderful!

A very cute and unique puzzle game. really hard, but to be fair im also not that smart sometimes.

game is fun
text is review
you should buy
baba is you

Fun game about literally bending the rules to beat levels. I don't personally remember the last time I played this for fun, but from what I do remember, finally figuring out the way to beat a level is really satisfying especially with the way this game is set up in the first place. I wouldn't wager this game to be worth 15 dollars, maybe somewhere closer to 10, but still a good experience nonetheless.

I love this game, as it is unique, can be incredibly mind-boggling and hard, and best of all, satisfying!

I played this game, and it is not for me. But if you enjoy this type of game, then I recommend this.

As someone who's bad at both coding and logic puzzles? This game is impossible but when I DO beat a level it's a great thrill.

Baba is cute.

One of the greatest puzzle games ever created and almost certainly the best sokoban. Endlessly creative with elegantly designed puzzles. When you solve a particularly difficult level, you are in awe of its creator's brilliance and you feel a tremendous satisfaction which is earned.

Graphics are low-fi but charming and music is very enjoyable.

One last note, the game is VERY difficult but not unfair, boring, or meaninglessly so.

Definitely the best puzzle game I've played. It`s really complicated but silly and fun at the same time. If challenges and joy from solving something hard is what you like - I really recommend to give it a try.

One of the most amazing puzzle games I've ever seen. It makes you think out of the box, come up with different techniques and is an incredible intelectual exercise. Can't recommend enough

Truly unique gameplay mechanic, engaging puzzles, great soundtrack, very cute. Excellent!!!

this game landed me a 6 figure programming job. but after realising C++ isnt a moving block puzzle i lost 5TB of important code and was fired 11/10

After refunding this, and giving a medicore score. I think this is a actually a great game, I suppose I wasn't "in the mood" to be challenged but this game is a good puzzle challenge! The first few levels are a bit too easy but they do well in teaching you the basics of the game.

The game has many unique puzzles and solutions. The idea of the game is also one of a kind. However, it is pretty difficult. Don't expect to finish all levels and get all achievements. Finding spoiler-free hints on the internet might be a good idea when stuck.

One of the most charming puzzle games I've ever played. Nothing compares to the sense of accomplishment from trying to bend your mind to the goal of each level.

Anytime the game feels "unfair," it really just means you didn't think far enough outside of the box.

Truly an all-time great game.

I saw some YouTubers doing play-throughs and by the time they hit level 5 I thought this looks fun, I don't wanna spoil myself. So I stopped watching and immediately bought the game. So far, it's very worth it. The difficulty starts low and generally ramps up, though there's a few later levels I breezed through and a few earlier ones I struggled on, so it's not 100% ramp, I guess that's always the same with these types of puzzle games. There appears to be a level editor to create and share your own puzzles, but apparently it contains spoilers for late game so I'm skipping that for now.

Pretty simple graphics and sound, but well done and effective. The game feels well polished and I haven't hit any major or really even many minor problems, it's all been good so far.

The puzzles are very logic based, though to pushing blocks around and experimenting a bit can give the occasional "ah-ha!" moment. It can get very mind bendy and breaky.

There appears to be quite a bit of content to keep most people busy for quite a few hours at least, even ignoring the level editor or fan-made levels, which I assume are around somewhere.

For me it works well on Debian 12

Overall, I recommend it to anyone who likes logic puzzles and is okay with being stumped from time to time. Good fun!

literally the best puzzle game ever. takes a once in a lifetime mechanic and uses it to fabulous effect. bonus levels in particular DO NOT pull punches when it comes to difficulty, they absolutely wrack your brain and solving them makes you feel like a legit genius. this game is so damn good.

super fun, but later on it gets quite hard (well no shit), to the point where completing a puzzle on your own
without third party help feels like heaven
still don't care about that, amazing song (legit so good), amazing gameplay, VERY creative gameplay.

A cute little puzzle game, might seem simple and straightforward in the beginning, but don't let that fool you... In order to continue to solve the puzzles as you progress, your understanding of the systems of the game mechanics will be tested. Truly a great puzzle game in that it challenges the way you think about a problem and using the limited rules you can change at hand.

This is an amazing puzzle game, and the best kind. It's a very simple idea that allows for incredibly interesting and continually novel interactions among the parts of the game. The art is simple but cute and each time I solve a puzzle I feel a genuine sense of achievement. Unlike most puzzle games, the more difficult puzzles aren't made by simply putting more moving parts into the machine and making things complicated, but instead are increasingly clever applications of existing methods and occasional additions of new methods.

The core idea is that each level has rules that are set by simple sentences built out of blocks of text. BABA IS YOU, for instance, means that the player controls Baba. If you push any part of that sentence out of the way, it breaks, and you no longer control Baba. Depending on how you push the text, that could mean you've failed the round or it could mean that now you've got control of a key, or a rock, or something else entirely. The player has to figure out how to use, or more often change, existing rules in order to reach the winning condition. It's surprisingly fun and challenging.

This game is the most amazing masterpiece. I would play more if i could but sadly playing this game has made me a genius mastermind and i have gotten into every single top college and am studying in all of them at once

Some puzzles are quite challenging, I've already gone through the entire process and possibility in my mind, yet when actually trying to solve the puzzle, I unexpectedly discover the result I haven't anticipated. Sometimes it's like solving a difficult math problem—feeling frustrated during the thought process when no solution seems to appear, but finally solving the problem brings a sense of clarity and a deep sense of accomplishment.

Positively groundbreaking puzzle concept. The main game is vast and still leaves an ocean of possibilities for custom levels (perhaps a necessary corollary of being Turing complete). Easily one of the top 10 puzzle games of all time. Don't bother waiting for a sale. If you love puzzle games, then you ought to cash in that life equity right away.

This is a phenomenal game but very hard, I highly recommend playing with a hint page or even two open and not being ashamed to check them most levels later in the game. I've been following the hints on a blog called keyofw which does good subtle hints, then when their hints are too subtle checking a YouTube playlist called "Baba is you- solutions- walkthrough" by Alayric, which has allowed me to finish nearly all the levels but still get the joy of figuring things out half the time or more.

Absolute masterpiece of a game. You don't have to play long to recognise if the game is for you because the rules of the game are always so clear. The only thing that limits you is the rules you create, and it really makes you think about every move. If you enjoy puzzle games this is a must play because it makes you re think how you approach every puzzle making each level challenging and different in their own way.
On the surface it is simple but as you continue to play the game it will make you feel dumber and dumber, only to solve the puzzle and have a wash of relief and satisfaction come over you.
Highly recommend, 9/10

Great puzzle game, level editor is easy to use and understand. 10/10

Oh lord, what a game. I didn't have the patience/time to go through the whole thing (I found it much harder than The Witness), but a total quirky delight.

This is peak. I love it how I can change the rules like they're part of my sandbox, the level editor is what carried it, honestly. Also Baba Is Sleep is just too cute.

Super cool game and creative concept. definitely recommended to those who want a challenging puzzle game

A challenging puzzle game where the solutions almost always feel 'fair'
