You don't know where you're going, but you're always headed somewhere. Welcome to Dr. Baldi, a doctor who's got mad math skills and is helping a medical student on his way to escape from a crazy hospital.

The idea behind Baldi's Adventures is that he's the doctor of a medical school who has to help a scared medical student get out of the place.

You'll have to use your knowledge of math to navigate through the corridors and labs of the hospital to collect a set of notebooks for their inspections, and to complete the tasks given to you by the Doctor. In the labs you'll need to measure body temperatures and count pulse in order to save patients from being poisoned or infected, while in the corridors you'll need to balance scales and weigh patients, or help them with their blood pressure.

In some cases, you'll need to use specific tools to do your job. For example, you'll have to use a pair of scissors to cut playtime nurse jumping rope, or a plaster box to stop a mad doctor or a bodyguard bully. There are different tasks in the game, from simple to complicated, and each one has to be done to its fullest to avoid getting caught by the Doctor and his psycho staff.

In the hospital, you'll also have to avoid getting trapped inside your locker, so you'll need to collect enough keys and combination locks to unlock them. These keys, on the other hand, will be useless if you're not quick enough to collect the correct number and type of keys you need.
