An action-oriented strategy game in which you take control of sadistic (yet cute) little characters, Baldies invites you to wipe out the enemy Hairies and achieve total domination of the game world. Gameplay is centered mainly on resource management. Players must assign their Baldies the roles of Scientist, Soldier, Worker, or Builder, each performing a vital function.

Balance is the underlying theme of the game, as you must be able to defend your holdings while steadily advancing and overtaking enemy positions. In addition to standard hand-to-hand combat, you can employ various odd devices to demolish those pesky Hairies. Scientists provide all sorts of goodies that allow you to turn roving animals into weapons of destruction, or rain fire upon your enemies. ~ Scott Steinberg, All Game Guide
