Gameplay

The game includes a competitive multiplayer mode played either online via the game's servers or via local multiplayer in which one player controls the father and the other player controls the baby. In both modes, the father must prevent the baby's death, through methods such as locking cabinets and placing dangerous objects out of the baby's reach, as the baby attempts to commit suicide in various ways, including drinking bleach and sticking forks in electrical outlets.
