It’s one of the best on mobile for sure!! It brings back so much memories i’ve been playing it since 2013, but stopped because of how many bugs the game had. And I am so glad the creators decided to not abandon the game for much longer and FINALLY update it!! Thank you so much! This game has so much potential and I can imagine how big it would be if it came to console :0 ### 5/5 — Advertisement *2021-09-05, version 2.53.3* I use to play this game everyday for hours on end it was so fun and i wish i could still but sadly everyone who did play has grown up and the player count is dangerously low. I haven’t been able to load into a match for a whole day. maybe try to advertise on tik tok. many kids would love this game as much as i do ### 5/5 — The tear of a old player *2021-04-13, version 2.53.3* Hello I still remember playing this with many cousins I am not sure why but private match did not work and I stumbled across this app and remembered all the great memories I had on this game but I stopped playing this game cause my iPad broke it made me shed a tear on installing the game again and remembering all the good moments I had when I was a youngster but now I am going to high school hopefully there is a remastered game of this. This is a underrated game now I hope for the best for this game and to the developers. And I could say I was one of the best players in the game:) ### 5/5 — My childhood *2021-04-11, version 2.53.3* Honestly this game is god tier for a mobile game I would always play this game every day and i enjoyed every second of it it was never ending fun but a couple years later and it seems a lot of people stopped playing so I stopped to because it was hard to match make but honestly seeing how the game was when it first came out I think this was worth all of the years playing this game. Thank you for all the years of never ending fun-A Veteran Battle bears Player ### 5/5 — Memories *2021-04-08, version 2.53.3* Oh my god I was just browsing through the App Store and found this and I’m eleven now but this is bringing back memories of when I was like seven or eight I can’t remember what exact age I was but wow does this bring memories I’m almost in tears right now me and my now sixteen year old step brother when he was younger man I’m actually crying I should get off before I drown in tears I just wanna say again WOW ### 5/5 — Awesome but slowly fading *2021-03-31, version 2.53.3* I was obsessed with the game, This game almost gave me life in my childhood, honestly I felt like I was one with the game, but now the more I play the more I realize people are fading away from this game, the game was slowly dying and so was I, I really hope to see a comeback for this game, and it’s not only me who wants it back, but I’m pretty sure there are millions out there, waiting for them to be reminded that this game was in their childhood ### 5/5 — :) *2021-03-09, version 2.53.3* Okay, I never write reviews but I decided to write one about this game. A couple years back, I played this game a ton. I ended up deleting it because of the fewer players and therefore longer start time requirements. I downloaded it again recently but it takes a while to play since no one plays it much anymore - I read a review that is basically the same as mine in that I think the audience that used to play this game definitely grew up and doesn’t play it as much or ever. Love the game, but it isn’t very much fun without people anymore. ### 5/5 — Need to be fixed *2021-03-07, version 2.53.3* I love battle bears I played it a lot like a LOT I spent a lot of money on BattleBears but after years I stopped playing it then I got my own phone I got battle bears the first app but I tried to make a account but it froze I tried a bunch of times but it didn’t work I want to save all of my stuff so developers if your listening plz fix this ### 5/5 — Plz make another game *2021-03-02, version 2.53.3* This game used to be the bomb so many memories of this game were made and it was insane how much fun it is it’s sad that I see like none play it would be amazing if you guys made another one with similar to the old one with the 90s graphics would be amazing but in real honestly this game was so much fun and thanks for making my memories ### 5/5 — (RATE 10/10 and a thank you!) *2021-01-26, version 2.53.3* I just want to start off by saying thank you to the developers who made this game. Not only did you make my childhood a living dream that brought a smile to my face but all the memories that I still have in my head. Sometimes I like to listen to the themes of this game and just lay down and just remember the good times. This game really showed me how fun it was to be a child and live to see this outstanding game come to life. I still play the game but it’s not as it was as the original, I have to join lobby’s manually instead of quick playing so it can put my in a match automatically, but it doesn’t matter to me, cause my childhood game is this one right here, thank you so much developers!, you know how to make legendary game! OH AND BY THE WAY! Do not get rid of the old music if your working on the new game, it’s a special place in everyone’s heart if you guys kept the music, but that’s all, again thank you ### 5/5 — Nostalgic *2020-10-08, version 2.53.3* I’m redownloading this game after I don’t know how many years later, there was never a bad time that I could remember playing this game, you know the story, I played it as a kid, and I loved it, even the cute character Hugable was one of the coolest ever. The people who are reading this may not know it, but we were probably in the same match once, most likely. Even watching ads for 100 gas cans to unlock the Mech Bear was awesome, even the hacker who shot infinite fireworks in that stomach map is awesome, and that memory was so long ago, but I still remember it, I know the developers probably won’t bring it to switch or any other platform, who knows if there even is another “iteration” of Battle Bears to come, but it would be awesome if they ported this game to switch, or if they made a sequel to this game and ported that, that would be awesome, the point is,I loved this game so much, so thank you Battle Bears team, thank you so much, I forgot about this for so long, and it brings me happiness to remember it so fondly after all these YEARS. ### 5/5 — TE AMO I LOVE THIS GAME *2020-09-20, version 2.53.3* You should add something to the game, every 10 kills u get you get 1gas and ADD TOUNAMENTS, YOU KNOW HOW THEY ADD JOULES AND LIKE TRN PEOPLE BATTLE AND THE WINNER TAKES ALL. SO EVERYONE PITCH IN 10k or 20k and yea and do it with gas to cause its hard to but everything on here and yea. THIS GAME IS AWESOME ON IPAD 2 AND JUST AMAZING SkyVu Pictures made a masterpiece and yea every 10 kills is 1 gas can and TOUNAMENTS. ———————————— Update: I wrote that YEARS AGO, and now I look back to this game and what I wrote, I loveeeeed this game and holds a special place in my heart. Thank you developers for MAKING THIS GAME IN THE FIRST PLACE AND constantly updating it with new characters and modes. Wether this game series continues or dies down, I will always love this game ### 5/5 — My Childhood *2020-04-29, version 2.53.3* I remember playing this game on my iPod Touch 5. This and star warfare. I was really good at this game, and I grinded to get where I was. I lost my account, but I tried to play a game the other day and realized I couldn’t load in due to no other players being online. I would play this game more than any other activity when I was younger, and I truly miss it. When I was younger this game used to be THE game, and it was fun to dominate with “A Salt Rifle” and the Handguns for Oliver. I just hope you developers are working on something new and are doing well. Thanks ### 5/5 — Thank you *2020-04-08, version 2.53.3* This was and will always be my favorite game of all time. I have long since lost my account for it but it is the only game I never got bored of and was the most fun i have ever had in a mobile game. Only game I have ever grinded to the point where I got everything and probably the only game where you could without buying stuff. Thank you for making such an amazing game I will never forget the memories. ### 5/5 — Please Read! *2020-04-05, version 2.53.3* I grew up playing this game but on an old Apple IPad. This was probably my favorite game as I would spend lots of time in my day trying to grind for that energy lol. But honestly it was a lot of fun, and I’m really excited for the next installment of Battle Bears, since this game is honestly kind of dead. I also would wish that the developers would put Battle Bears 1 and Zero back on the App Store. Anyways overall the game is very fun and probably one of the best mobile games ever! However, the game is sadly dead. I have yet to get into an actual match during this year. I feel that a smart move would be for the developers to add bots as it would allow people to at least experience the game. Hopefully the next installation of Battle Bears will draw more players. ### 5/5 — Ultimate *2020-03-12, version 2.53.3* I think what killed this game was the release of bbu or overclocked. While the game itself was great, it wasn’t immediately release to the App Store and people didn’t want to start over. I think the developers killed overclocked which was unfortunate but necessary. Rather than having veteran users start over, I think they should revamp the game with an overhaul update; no Royale, new maps, new weapons and maybe a campaign. Also rename it gold again cause that’s the game we all fell in love with as kids. ### 5/5 — Battle bears players? *2020-02-23, version 2.53.3* I’ve along with many have been playing battle bears from the very beginning many years ago as it was the only game I really thought was fun, but as many of us grow up we decided to leave the game in the dust, but this game has potential for other children. You guys need to grab the attention of many by updating your game a bit more constantly as it seems that you guys have been updating every year and when those updates happens it’s usually a bug fix and some new items. I believe if instead of updating that stuff, instead you should increase the graphics and the game play as the graphics of the game have stayed the same for 4 years. ### 5/5 — The old days... *2020-02-13, version 2.53.3* This is game was one of the best childhood games of all times hands down but it’s not looking good right now and it makes me sad. But I still love an d even tho I don’t play like I use to I still have this since it’s one of my childhood games. This game over the years been fun playing with cousins made me to happy. This makes we cry when a great game from my childhood goes down and alway waiting for a game. But you know I still play it and love to see more. And since I’m going up from a 6-12 it’s been long and hard over the years. Such a great game inspires me to do the game, wish the best and signing off ;) goodbye... Thank you so much... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — TIME WAIT *2017-11-20, version 2.27* Omg this game was my childhood! I came back to it and it looks the same which is fine. I was so excited to play again! And it said average time wait was 56 seconds. That was new in the game but I didn't think of it as a big deal. It went WAY past the average. It went to 2 minutes AT THE LEAST. And every time I would actually get to go in the game it says waiting for one person and then after a few seconds it says everyone left. I tried over and over again no matter how long I had to wait. The time went up higher to 7 minutes!!! So I just deleted the app and I never got to relive my childhood game. ### 3/5 — Switch port to have more players *2020-07-15, version 2.53.3* I have loved this game for a long time and I have been playing again lately. It’s still a great and fun game, but it is very difficult to find a game. It takes me about 15 minutes to find and game and it’s still very empty with not many players. I hope this game exist even after the new battle bears x comes out because I prefer this games graphics and animations. I think this game can be popular again if it gets ported to the switch and has cross play with mobile phones. ### 3/5 — I’ve played this game for 7 years. *2019-07-06, version 2.53.3* I started this game in December of 2012 when I was 11 years old. It was first called Battlebears Royale, long before Battle Royale games were created. In 2014 a newer edition of the old game came out called Battlebears Gold. It had tons of new players, a different, more shaded style of graphics, new weapons and maps. I really enjoyed this game in my childhood. Today, this game is basically dead. Very few people play it, new guns barely ever come out, and the creator decided to rename it back to its original name Battlebears Royale to hop on the battle royale bandwagon. This game was never a battle royale. It was just a mobile FPS. The creator released a battle royale to get on the hype train but it’s extremely buggy and poorly poorly made. This game could have gotten a lot more progress had it been updated over the years. It has definitely lost players over the years. This will always be my childhood favorite game, only because it is nostalgic to me, but that’s all I have to say. ### 3/5 — BATTLE BEARS *2018-07-24, version 2.53.2* Used to be one of my most favorite games out of any other game on the AppStore. It’s special characters with unique maps and a well designed 4v4 game play. The problem is... the devs killed the game... they stopped making good updates, they didn’t make the community want to play and it’s not even iPhoneX compatible... this was an amazing franchise and I wish they would work to recover it. Would be amazing. I would recommend instead of working on a new game... just fix this one... also would LOVE to see it on console or PC!! ### 3/5 — Great game with no support *2017-08-12, version 2.27* Updates for this game have been lacking, but overall the core game is good. It is a shame that the game barely has updates now since battle bears over clock has been released, but even that game has not been updated in a year ;-;. Please skyvu, put more content in all of your titles. Your games are amazing! The community is dead and takes a long time just to find one game. Even if you find a game, the pay 2 play players have so use the op weapons and classes that one shot any class. The berserker class is the most broken. The class can one shot any low health class. The game is not bad, but has just awful support :(. ### 4/5 — Good game, but hard to play *2020-07-17, version 2.53.3* Finding players is really hard and it takes a long time. I’ve spent years playing this game and it’s sad that I can’t play much anymore. I think a console port especially to the switch would be a good idea. If this came on switch it would be my favorite game to play on it. I really like the design and graphics of the characters here a lot more than Battle Bears OVERLOCK so I hope one day this version can one day be ported. ### 4/5 — account registration problems *2020-01-19, version 2.53.3* I honestly loved this game as a kid and I still do which is why I decided to download it again to bring back some good memories but there’s just a slight problem , each time I try entering my account information to register it keeps on freezing and I really don’t want to lose all the progress saved as a guest account !! :( anyway you can be able to help ? I’d appreciate a little support ! ### 4/5 — Update please?! *2019-05-03, version 2.53.3* I really REALLY love this game except since not to many people play anymore🙁 it’s hard to join matches. An update to get more people to play will be AMAZING. Also can you make it easier to get gas? Because right now it’s hard to get it. Although in your battle ROYALE you get gas but since not to many people play. So an update would TREMENDOUSLY INCREASE your game in my personal opinion. So please a huge update would be awesome. If you can do it take as much time as you need. I love this game keep up the good work! 🐻❤️ ### 4/5 — Next step: console *2017-11-16, version 2.27* I have played just about every battle bear game that has come out. I first found it a couple of years ago and just recently started playing again. But right now it is lacking something. I think that the next step for battle bears is for it to come out on console or something like that. Money wouldn’t really be a problem if you implemented stuff like supply drops that give you money, weapons, weapon skins, and skins for characters. I really love this game and I want to see it prosper again. ### 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. :) ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 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 **Developer response:** I'm @BenVu the creator of Battle Bears. Great minds think alike! We want to remaster BBG too 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 — 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. **Developer response:** I'm @BenVu the creator of Battle Bears. Thank you so much for your support over the years!

Hope to see you in BB Heroes! ### 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 . --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
