What Is This?
This list is a comprehensive guide to the best custom level packs available for Baba Is You. It includes ratings of each pack's difficulty (where available), details on the total number of levels, flowers, and orbs in each one (levels/flowers/orbs) and download links for everything. The first 10 descriptions in this list are taken, with permission from Olies' Discord list[discord.com] . Olie is also the developer behind three of the listed entries.
The main ideas behind this guide are to make these levelpacks available to a wider audience, and to give players who finished the main game an idea on what to try next. For those who don't know yet, levelpack folders are copied into (in a typical Windows installation): C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baba Is You\Data\Worlds
Alphababa Soup By Randomiser
A challenging pack filled with "aha!" moments, an obvious favourite among many baba veterans! And that's for good reason - it's a gauntlet of complex, tightly-designed levels that'll leave you scratching your head for hours.

Baba Is Travel By Berries Butcher
That Baba sure do be travelling. The main focus of this pack is on presenting the player with an array of difficult levels, tied together with unique environments and a pretty world map. There's an emphasis on manoeuvring objects around like a sokoban, rather than making or breaking certain rules. There's a lot of complexity here!

Babanother By Napier
You want something difficult? Really? You sure? Well, here you go. Babanother takes a whole bunch of levels from the basegame and tweaks them ever so slightly. These changes are carefully engineered to massively change the solution and difficulty of the original level. It's not for the faint-hearted!
Difficulty:💀💀💀 (this pack will kill you)

Everypence By Olie
This pack tests the limits of how far an unmodded pack can go, using hidden text trickery to create custom properties and cutscenes, each of which are neatly divided into sectioned off corners of the map. It also has a few custom sprites, and it's own OST!
Difficulty: same as base game

Letters+ By Olie
An exploration into a bunch of different ways that letters can be interpreted. The mechanics are clever in a "huh, i never thought of looking at things like that" kind of way, and make a lot of sense once you understand how they work. Features a custom soundtrack!

Persistence By Randomiser
Using the modded word "PERSIST" (created specifically to be used in this pack), Persistence explores the implications of what's essentially the level-transform mechanic on steroids. So as not to give too much away, this pack goes completely off the rails in the best way possible, some of the puzzles requiring you to visit multitudes of different maps and levels in order to solve!
Difficulty: same as base game

Repose By Regal
If you're chasing an experience that's similar to the basegame, this is for you! Repose teaches and explores a handful of the new words that don't appear within the basegame levels in a distinctly baba-like fashion.
Difficulty: same as base game

The Legend Of Zelbaba By Hillexed
Face off against the evil Wug with the help of Zelda powerups, such as the grappling hook or the deku leaf! There's also an array of mashups of classic Zelda songs in the baba style to keep your ears just as entertained as your eyes. The pack is a lot more chill than most, with an emphasis on lighthearted fun rather than complex puzzle solving.
Difficulty: chill

The Web By Maildropfolder
This pack involves meta shenanigans, and a lot of it. Much like a spiderweb, most of the levels are connected to each other in some way, and it quickly becomes a tricky tightrope navigating the increasingly complex sequences of levels.
Difficulty: tough

Strangeland By Olie
Made for the Baba Is You Official Fall GameJam, Strangeland is a textless pack featuring 6 worlds, custom music, some rather strange aesthetics, and a heck ton of puzzles to solve!
Difficulty: (rating not available)

Silver Meadow By Silverhawke
A classic levelpack by silverhawke. Note that this is a bit older than most levelpacks mentioned here, hopefully there are no bugs with newer Baba versions.

Nonlinearity By Silverhawke
Another classic levelpack by silverhawke.

Synthetic Genesis By Potatosynthesis
Consists of ~100 levels with a major focus on editor-exclusive words. This pack combines Potatosynthesis' previous two packs Babasynthesis and Babamorphosis. Although the two maps are reused, a major portion of these old levels have been changed. There are also a lot of new levels, so the players who have completed the previous packs should still enjoy this pack. No preview image found for that one,so have a picture of Baba instead.
