About Baldwin's Bear
It's the magic of a carnival through the eyes of a child!
Come on down to the show and play a range of fun carnival games! From a fishing pool to a bouncy castle to a ghost train, each minigame is unique from the last, and holds its own little tricks and secrets.
The showgrounds can be explored openly, in whatever order (or disorder) you choose, provided you can cough up the tickets! The sideshow staff is a mob of quirky characters with an endless supply of bizarre and entertaining dialogue, and it's their job to guide you through this hand-made world of childlike wonder and freedom.
But what's the final goal for this protagonist - a six-year-old girl named Baldwin? It's simple; Baldwin is entranced by the beauty of a pink stuffed bear, and the only way to obtain this prize is by accumulating enough tickets. She must adventure through the show and collect tickets through the minigames or secret treasures to reach her goal.
In versus mode Baldwin isn't the only little girl chasing after the bear! With split-screen multiplayer, a second player can control Baily, as both scramble to grab tickets and find secrets first, while also sabotaging each other in minigames, like a classic party game.

I love videogames sometimes i forget it but something about this guy made me remember it3 found this helpful
Baldwins Bear, while a shortlived story experience, brings intense feelings into your heart with its compelling storyline and incredible gameplay mechanics. The artstyle is beautiful and soulful, moreso than similar games like elden ring and titanfall 2. Thank you baldwin2 found this helpful
Not even that interesting
I hate it. SO MUCH.
Had this little gem in the backlog for years, but finally got around to playing it and I'm really glad I did. It was like stumbling onto some forgotten early 200s PC game you saw once as a kid. The game is incredibly charming, from the goofy sounds, the simple musics, the claymation, to the old internet game aesthetic, all came together complementing the feeling of childlike wonder is going for. Exploring the fair felt somewhat nostalgic and oddly magical, with this subdle uncanny but comforting atmosphere. The gameplay per se was nothing special, the minigames were simple, but thoughtfully designed and surprisingly addictive trying to highscore them. I also loved piecing together how to get the other two bears to 100% it. A short, wonderful, and with lot of personality, a great game worth experience. Not for everyone but defenetly deserving more praise adn attention.
Quite possibly the greatest game anybody has ever made, i love u baldwin, i 100%'d it in an hour and a half it was lit as ♥♥♥♥♥
