Gameplay

As the loyal Teddy, move around the screen, picking up building blocks to build a staircase at the top of the screen. The other toys, scared that if the baby is comforted then mother will turn out the lights and they won't be able to play any more, will attack you. You can defend yourself by throwing objects at the enemy toys, but beware, defeating all the enemies will summon the fearsome plasticine. Your only ally is Jack-in-the-Box, who will temporarily stun all enemies on the screen when woken up. There are 99 levels of the toybox to climb through to reach your ultimate goal.


This enhanced version introduces a number of modern features to this retro classic, including:

  • Saving/loading the game at any point
  • Support for most modern game controllers
  • Full control remapping
