Alright, so picture this: “Run from Baba Yaga” slaps you right into the wildest parts of Slavic fairy tales, but not the Disney kind—think more haunted woods, less singing princesses. You’re this gutsy kid legging it through a creepy forest, just trying not to get snatched by Baba Yaga herself. Yeah, the OG witch with the chicken-leg house and a serious attitude problem. The whole vibe? Basically, a fever dream with killer art and music that’ll have you glancing over your shoulder IRL.

What’s cool is, it’s not just another boring endless runner. There’s an actual story here—like, someone actually cared about the folklore, and you can feel it. Baba Yaga isn’t just some generic baddie. She’s this full-on myth, and the game goes hard on the weird and spooky. Every jump, every near miss, you’re right there in the legend, sweating bullets.

So who’s Baba Yaga, anyway? Total legend in Eastern European stories. Lives in a hut on chicken legs, does magic, probably doesn’t have a dental plan. People are low-key terrified of her, but also kinda respect her, which is a mood. The game nails that mix—she’s creepy, but you can’t help but want to see more.

Gameplay? Fast. Like, blink and you’ll faceplant into a spiky pit. The traps get wilder the longer you last, so good luck keeping your cool. The controls are brain-dead simple: tap to hop, hold to go full Superman. Perfect for killing time on your phone or pretending to work on your laptop. No downloads, no faff, just straight into the action.

Visually, it’s got that hand-drawn, slightly-off-kilter fairy-tale look—fog, flickering lights, shadows moving where they shouldn’t. Soundtrack’s a banger too, all eerie wind and heart-thumping chase beats. Honestly, just the sound of Baba Yaga getting closer is enough to make you mess up your jump.

Why can’t you put it down? That “one more try” energy is real. Every time you biff it, you’re convinced you could’ve gone just a little farther. The game keeps mixing things up—new traps, faster runs—so it never gets stale. Plus, it actually rewards you for nailing those tricky jumps. Feels good, man.

And look, even though it’s got strong horror vibes, it’s totally kid-friendly. No blood, no nightmare fuel—just good, clean, spooky fun. Little ones dig the fairy-tale stuff, older gamers get the challenge. Everybody wins.

Oh, and sneaky bonus: you’re actually getting sharper while you play. Hand-eye coordination, reaction time, focus—this game low-key turns you into a ninja without you even noticing.

Tech stuff? Runs in your browser, works on pretty much anything with a screen—old phone, trusty laptop, whatever. Loads in like two seconds. Seriously, it’s the definition of “jump right in.”

So yeah. Witch, woods, wild chase, no downloads. Get running.
