About My Child Lebensborn Remastered
My Child Lebensborn Remastered puts you in the role of a caretaker for a young survivor of the WWII Lebensborn program. You adopt either Karin or Klaus and must meet their basic needs while navigating a hostile post‑war community. The game blends emotional storytelling with everyday tasks such as feeding, cleaning, and playing, all framed by limited resources and time.
The experience is built on true‑story events and was created with input from Norwegian Lebensborn children. It also supports Steam achievements, family sharing, and single‑player play on Windows. Part of the proceeds support the Children Born of War Project, which aids children of enemy soldiers worldwide.
01 / THE GUIDE
Adopt and Care for Your Child
You begin by choosing to adopt either Karin or Klaus. The core loop revolves around meeting the child’s needs—cleaning, feeding, and playing—to keep them healthy and emotionally stable. Each action is presented as a moment you must decide how to spend, reflecting the scarcity of time and resources.
The game emphasizes listening to the child, offering comfort when they are hurt, and being present during moments of bullying or cruelty. Your support directly influences how the child copes with the surrounding hatred.
- Observe how the child reacts after each care action to gauge emotional state.
- Balance playtime with basic needs to avoid neglecting either aspect.

Managing Meager Resources
Resources are described as meager and precious, requiring you to allocate them wisely each day. Decisions about spending time on chores versus protecting the child shape the narrative outcome. The scarcity creates tension that mirrors the historical hardships faced by Lebensborn families.
Because resources are limited, each moment becomes a strategic choice, influencing how well you can shield the child from external threats and meet internal needs.
- Prioritize essential tasks like feeding before optional activities.
- Track resource usage to anticipate future shortages.
03 / THE GUIDE
Facing Community Hatred
The post‑war community is hostile toward the child’s past, presenting scenarios of bullying, cruelty, and discrimination. You must decide whether to confront the hatred directly or hide with your child. These choices affect the child’s emotional development and the story’s direction.
The game asks you to stand up for the child, offering dialogue options when they encounter hate, and to provide comfort when they are hurt, reinforcing the theme of protective caregiving.
- Consider the long‑term impact of confronting versus hiding in each encounter.
- Use calm dialogue to de‑escalate tense situations when possible.
04 / THE GUIDE
Discovering the Child’s Past
Hidden links to the child’s biological parents can be uncovered, revealing the true story of the Lebensborn program. Exploring these links provides context for the present discrimination and deepens the narrative experience.
The game encourages you to confront the realities of the child’s origins, integrating historical facts with personal storytelling, which can alter how you approach future decisions.
- Take notes on discovered information to reference later decisions.
- Compare new revelations with current events to understand cause and effect.
