The variety and quality of the animations and sound effects is very good. The squeaks, shouts and screams of the little creatures are all spot on for entertainment. The baldies themselves are very small, almost Lemming -like in appearance, but are just big enough to be recognisable as cute figures rather than a blob of pixels on the screen. It's clear what tasks your own baldies have from their colour, but enemy baldies all look alike, which is a slight snag. The maps have good variety with the five worlds, and baldies, buildings and inventions are all themed to the world you're playing.
Background music varies with the world too, with the Egyptian music being particularly catchy.
Baldies is, like Settlers , very appealing visually, and the overall look has clearly had a good amount of effort put into it. A helicopter on a bombing run. The appearance of the game is a strong point. The gameplay itself is quite compulsive, at least initially. The problem is that it is far from obvious how things work at first, and the small manual is no help in that respect.
