The two roles and how a round works

Table

In short Every round puts you on one side of a chase — know which role you are before the countdown ends.

At the start of each round you are assigned either the killer role or the Student role. The killer waits through a 40-second countdown before hunting, while Students use that time to grab items and find notebooks.

Killer	hunts Students by left-clicking when they are within reach distance
Student	collects Notebooks by completing Activities and avoids being caught
Baldi	uses a Boostometer that charges a Ruler Dash when full
Troublesome	replaces Baldi in the Troublesome Schoolhouse Special Round and the 99 modifier; faster but does not praise after Activities
Wild West Baldi	trades the Ruler Dash for a toy gun that deals 60 damage per shot and kills instantly on a headshot
Students	earn 250 YTPs when they escape through an activated exit

Student priorities at round start

Step

In short The first minute decides whether you have enough items and map knowledge to survive Time-Out.

Other Students are competing for the same items, so speed matters early. Learning where Notebooks and Levers sit on each map cuts the time you spend in Baldi's path.

Grab items first sprint through the map immediately; other Students are doing the same
Solve Activities interact with each Notebook and complete its Activity to claim it and shorten the timer
Pull Levers flip every Lever you find, since they also decrease the timer on maps that have them
Listen for the Ruler Dash the loud slap sound tells you where Baldi is without needing line of sight

Hiding, moving, and staying alive as a Student

Tips

In short Smart positioning and movement techniques extend your survival far into Time-Out.

Movement skill and map awareness matter as much as items. The third-person camera and a few practiced techniques let you react to Baldi before he reaches you.

Tips worth knowing

Stand at a corner where two long hallways meet so you can see Baldi coming from either direction
Use the third-person camera to look around walls without stepping into the open
Save BSODA for the longer hallway and Diet BSODA for shorter ones — the splash duration matches each corridor
When your Staminometer runs low, find a Water Fountain or use a Zesty Bar before you stop dead
Dark corners and recessed areas hide you before Time-Out, but move out once it starts because Students become highlighted
Crouch Bhop during Time-Out — normal Bhopping is not fast enough to outrun Baldi at that stage
Wall-glide by angling slightly into a wall to carry your momentum through straightaways

Playing as Baldi — countdown to catch

Step

In short Combine Ruler Dashes with careful room checks and sound cues to corner Students before Time-Out.

Baldi starts slower than Time-Out lets him become, so the early game is about map control and forcing item usage. Every 30 seconds the Boostometer receives an automatic buff, so Students cannot simply hide forever.

Take the Apple early grab it before Students can, since it becomes a major tool against you in Time-Out
Knock on doors knocking lets you hear nearby Students through the door before you commit to a direction
Reserve the Ruler Dash for corners slow down before turning so momentum does not slam you into a wall
Check hiding spots methodically look under tables, in corners, and behind bookshelves; Students hiding in blue lockers can be flushed out with the 'I know you're in there!' taunt
Try Ambush Baldi when you cannot find anyone skip the Ruler Dash, move quietly in third person, and get close before Students notice you

Match phases and the Time-Out shift

Summary

In short Time-Out changes the game completely for both sides, so track the timer and adjust the moment it kicks in.

Rounds move through distinct phases. During the Last Student Standing segment the timer drains at double speed, pressuring both sides. When Time-Out begins the pace resets — but Baldi becomes significantly more dangerous.

Last Student Standing　timer drains twice as fast until Time-Out begins
Time-Out start (Baldi)　Boostometer charges instantly, Ruler Dash has no cooldown, movement speed increases noticeably
Time-Out start (Students)　all Students become highlighted, making every hiding spot less effective
Each Student caught during Time-Out　adds 5 seconds to the timer
Boostometer buff　fires automatically every 30 seconds and resets whenever an Objective is completed

Maps and their objectives

Check

In short Every map has a specific win condition beyond just surviving — know it before the round starts.

Normal maps rotate regularly; Special maps appear every three rounds and carry unique rules. Before moving, check which objective type the current map uses so you spend your time on the right tasks.

Notebook maps (Schoolhouse, Baldi's World, Spaceship, and others) collect all Notebooks to open exits or decrease the timer
Lever maps (Basement, Maintenance #1, Detention Outbreak, Super Mall, Glitched Schoolhouse) pull all Levers in addition to collecting Notebooks
Elevator maps (Not So Public Demo, Ancient Plus Spaces, Factory #1, Laboratory #1) collect Notebooks to activate Elevators at Time-Out; completing Activities also shortens the timer
Campsite Special find Log, Coal, or Gasoline around the map and hand it to 1st Prize to keep the Campfire lit; if the fire dies, everyone is highlighted until it is relit
Wild West Special hit Targets with Plungers to decrease the timer; Baldi uses a toy gun instead of a ruler
Farm Special feed Animals (Wheat to Cows and Sheep, Corn to Chickens, Granny Smith to Pigs) to stop Gotta Reap from triggering
Troublesome Schoolhouse Special survive until the timer runs out; Troublesome replaces Baldi and does not slow down for praising

Items and what they do

Table

In short Pick items that match the immediate threat — push Baldi away, hide your sounds, or recover stamina.

Regular items appear on any map; Special items only appear in specific maps or situations. Right-click or tap the Use button to activate an item.

Item	What it does
BSODA	Pushes Baldi away with a lasting splash
Diet BSODA	Same as BSODA but the splash fades after 3 seconds
Zesty Bar	Instantly refills stamina and adds a 100% bonus on top
Invisibility Elixir	Makes you invisible to Baldi temporarily
Baldi's Least Favorite Tape	Prevents Baldi from hearing any sounds you make
WD-NoSquee	Removes all your movement sounds and makes stamina regenerate 10% faster
Dangerous Teleporter	Teleports you to Baldi's spawn point
Quarter	Powers a Vending Machine for a random item; on Payphones acts like Baldi's Least Favorite Tape
Super Stretchy Glove	Extends your reach distance enormously
Nana Peel	Drops a peel that makes anyone who touches it slide forward
Swinging Door Lock	Locks a door; Baldi can break it
Techno Boots	Protects you from Wormhole pull and BSODA push effects
Shape Keys	Opens locked Shape Key doors
Log / Coal / Gasoline	Adds fuel to 1st Prize's Campfire (small / medium / large amount)
Wheat / Corn / Granny Smith	Feed the matching animal to decrease the Farm timer — given to Cows/Sheep, Chickens, and Pigs respectively
Plunger	Hits Wild West Targets to decrease the timer; can also push Baldi or other players

Badges and how to earn them

Check

In short Most badges come from winning rounds under specific conditions — chase the trickier ones deliberately rather than hoping they happen naturally.

There are ten earnable badges. Several require you to win as a specific role or on a specific map.

Teacher's Victory play as Baldi and win a round
Be4 Timeout play as Baldi and win a round before the timer reaches 1 minute
Students Victory play as a Student and win any round
Last One 2 Win be the only Student left standing and still win the round
Absolutely Mod1f1ed win any round that had at least one modifier active
Campsite Victory, Farm Victory, Wild West Victory win the matching Special Round on either side
Troublesome Victory win the Troublesome Schoolhouse Special Round as either Troublesome or a Student
It's Shiny the only way is to find out

Glossary

YTP: The in-game reward currency earned by completing rounds, with Hardcore Servers doubling the amount you receive.
Boostometer: Baldi's energy gauge that charges over time and after jumps; when full it enables a Ruler Dash.
Staminometer: The Student's stamina gauge; when it empties you cannot sprint until it recovers at a Water Fountain or with a Zesty Bar.
Ruler Dash: Baldi's charge move triggered when the Boostometer is full, producing a loud slap sound and breaking nearby windows.
Time-Out: The final phase of a round when Baldi's speed and Boostometer recharge become dramatically stronger and Students become highlighted.
Last Student Standing (LSS): The phase that begins when only one Student remains; the timer drains at double speed until Time-Out starts.
Bhop: Chaining jumps in quick succession to move faster than normal running allows.
Crouch Bhop: A Bhop where you switch from sprinting to crouching mid-jump, producing significantly more speed than a regular Bhop.
Wall-glide: Angling your character slightly into a wall to maintain momentum instead of losing speed at the contact point.
Activity: A short puzzle attached to a Notebook or Lever that you must complete to claim the objective.
Modifier: A rule change applied on top of a normal map that alters how the round plays.

Common questions

FAQ

Will the game keep getting new content?

The developers ended the project for health reasons, so the game will stay in Alpha permanently. Only patches are still being released. The game remains fully playable.

How do I open the exits as a Student?

On maps that use exits, collect every Notebook by completing their Activities. Once all Notebooks are gathered the exits activate, and leaving through one earns you 250 YTPs.

What should I do differently during Time-Out as a Student?

Move out of any hiding spot immediately because you become highlighted and easy to spot. Switch to Crouch Bhopping — regular Bhopping is not fast enough to outrun Baldi once his speed increases at Time-Out.

Does the Apple work against Troublesome?

No — the Apple has no effect on Troublesome, so using it against him simply wastes the item.

What do Hardcore Servers change?

Hardcore Servers award twice as many YTPs per round as standard servers.

How do I play as Troublesome instead of Baldi?

Troublesome only appears as the killer in the Troublesome Schoolhouse Special Round and when the 99 modifier is active. Outside of those conditions, Baldi is always the killer.
