Baldi's Basics in Education and Learning is an indie horror game first released in 2018 as a parody of 1990s educational software, in which players collect notebooks while avoiding the teacher Baldi. Its opening greeting became familiar as Let's Play creators and streamers shared playthroughs, reaction videos, and memes built around the game's sudden shift from cheerful school lessons to survival horror. The clip remains popular because it instantly identifies the game, works as a nostalgic trigger for viewers who played it, and fits short-form edits, remixes, and fan animations.
