Baldies

About

Baldies is a real-time strategy game from 1995 where you command a squad of bald, round characters fighting against hair-covered enemies. The gameplay focuses on building bases, managing resources, and directing units in fast-paced battles. You balance population growth, defense, and attacks while racing to outmaneuver opponents. The simplicity of controls makes it easy to pick up but tough to master as matches demand quick thinking and adaptability. The game’s charm lies in its absurd aesthetic and lighthearted premise. Available on PC, Mac, PlayStation, and other platforms, it offered local multiplayer for up to eight players. Though it didn’t achieve mainstream success, its mix of strategy and humor has kept a small audience engaged. The bald versus hairy character design remains one of its most memorable quirks.
