### 5/5 — Nostalgia

*2023-07-29*

I don’t really write reviews but i just want to thank the creators and developers of this game for a creating a masterpiece of a game. I just found it today after 5+ years and it just brings back so much memories. I remember going to my grandmas house every sunday and playing this on her ipad so thank you again for amazing game. idk if you guys still work on this game or anything like but i would love if you guys were able to put it on console like switch, playstation etc… but i’m sure a large fan base of this game would really appreciate if you put it on consoles. please if consider doing this if you still work on this game. :)

### 5/5 — Battle Bears Forever 🥹

*2023-06-05*

I remember first discovering Battle Bears Royale when I was 12 and playing my heart out daily and now I’m 21. Back then it was so lively, plenty of people to play matches with, it was the best escape and way to decompress.
Not to mention, the graphics and craft behind this game for its time was amazing, especially being mobile. I’ve spent hours upon hours playing and I recently redownloaded it after so long, because of pure nostalgia. Call it intuition or whatever but I’m so glad that I randomly got back on before it’s gone for good. :( My heart breaks a little, with many others. I hope some how, some way we can continue to enjoy this piece of history with its community. 
Huge thank you to the developers who gave all of us an outlet growing up. 

🐻🤟🏼

**Developer response:** I'm @BenVu the creator of Battle Bears. Thank you so much for your kind words! We want to remaster BBG properly for PC/console/mobile but need more bullets. Our upcoming BB Heroes top-down game in July will help us get the bullets needed to make BBG Remastered a reality. BBG players who save their home menu screenshot will get an exclusive BB Gold Skin in BB Heroes. Check BattleBears.com for details. Hope to see you in BB Heroes!

### 5/5 — Future of Game & Development

*2023-05-04*

Honestly, this game was so good when it first came out and still is! However, not a lot of people played anymore due to us all growing up... I’ve been playing for years straight now but I feel like the game is fading from me due to player count. I do feel like this can change though if this was added onto consoles such as the Nintendo Switch, Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox. The way to go would be for this to be remastered, free and for the game to have nice graphics. I honestly see so much potential if you were able to put the game out in consoles. It’ll show all these young kids a game different from Fortnite or Call of Duty, a game that many high schoolers, college students and even grown adults use to play on their phone! Please consider this as the game is very fun and you’ll be able to make tons of marketing revenue with skins, gun camos and colored aspects that can sell from the game. Thank you for reading this and please realize to make this move as this game is dying, if you don’t remaster this..then i understand as not a lot of people demand it. Take this into consideration-a fellow Battle Bears Veteran!

Edit: May 3, 2023.
It’s been 4 years since I made this review and I still love the game. You guys should definitely consider taking this to steam or consoles STILL. Hope all is well with everyone who played or created this game! Childhood memory fr

### 5/5 — Nostalgic

*2023-02-04, version 3.0.1*

I remember when my older brother used to play this game, it was one of the many games my brother introduced to me when I was a little kid. It’s something I’m very thankful for; for all the good memories stuff like this has given. Anyways, this game has unfortunately died out years ago, and I’ve been thinking maybe you guys could make a second battle bears game that would be more polished; it might help bring back some people, and I think it would be something worth working on. Anyways, I wish you guys good luck in the future; thanks for reading.

### 5/5 — Best mobile game I’ve ever played

*2022-09-01, version 3.0.1*

Used to play this game non stop on my iPod back in 2015. Best shooter game on mobile and honestly miss it. Was just laying in bed 7 years later and somehow remembered and downloaded it again. Cant find a single game to play I just wanted to enjoy it again sad to see no one plays this anymore. Honestly would be amazing if all the OG BB players got back on.

### 5/5 — Ideas so this game can come back

*2022-07-02, version 3.0.1*

I grew up loving this game having most characters and I miss what it is. I feel like it would be a good idea to spend money on marketing because I don’t see any ads for battle bears anywhere. Also to discount the deals for bundles for new players. I wish that the same amount of players played this game like how they did back in the day. And getting word out there a lot better might have a chance at increasing player count. I really hope it doesn’t stay like this forever and makes a comeback.

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing

*2022-06-14, version 3.0.1*

Dear creators,

This game made up some of my child hood, and to see it’s still some what running is amazing to me. I wish it could be more popular with main stream media. Everything about this game from the music to the style and gameplay is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I hope this game revives and possibly makes it up on top charts. Maybe this game could be released for console if it hasn’t already. Anyways thanks for the great memories!

### 5/5 — Maybe make a Kickstarter?!

*2022-03-27, version 3.0.1*

SkyVu I’ve always loved the battle bear franchise and see it as a franchise with so much potential! Have you guys ever considered a Kickstarter?? If you ever needed help with anything to fund your battle bears projects, especially the multiplayer experiences you should look into it! Fans will always be more than glad to support you and your endeavors and who knows? Maybe you’ll garner enough support to release on console if you were ever willing to do so! Your games are truly amazing, especially this one, and I truly believe you could gain even more success with this franchise in the future but if you guys ever need help never be afraid to allow the fans the opportunity to help.

### 5/5 — I love this game and it’s one of the most nostalgic things ever .

*2021-12-27, version 3.0.1*

I’ve played the battle bears games forever especially this one,all though not as popular as it used to be and not as many people play it,which makes me sad,I still love this game and all I have to say to the developers is thank you for the years of entertainment and joy this game brought me.I also think a console version would be awesome btw.

### 5/5 — childhood bears

*2021-11-28, version 3.0*

to be honest when I was younger I used to play this game with my best friend all the time and I completely forgot about it now that I’m getting older and I feel like a lot of people have stopped playing it or forgot about it but I just had a sudden memory and decided to download it again this was a such a great game and I hope it gets brought back because I used to love playing this game having so many memories when I was like 8, now that i’m a teenager it just brings back all the good times and I definitely had a great time playing this game .
