Polar bears are my favorite animal! It such a fun game! I loved what they turned into too! But two problems! One I hate to kill other polar bears in the game! It makes me really sad 😢. Two my game stop working! I went into one day and it didn’t work! I don’t know why it stopped working! Maybe it’s because of my IPad? ### 3/5 — Good game *2018-08-29, version 1.0* This game is not the game I was looking for... but for now it will have to do. Over all I think it is a good game. ### 3/5 — Fun but sad *2018-08-05* I just started playing and I just wanted to say that the graphics are AMAZING!!!!!!! But also I realized that every time you go into the game it gives you an ad. What I like about it is that you get to have a polar bear, but I love bears and it involves bears dying. Overall, I think it’s an awesome game! Thanks for creating it!!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻 ### 4/5 — Polar Bear Evolution review *2018-06-23, version 1.0* Polar Bear Evolution is great, but the Polar Bears need to come quicker otherwise you start to get bored. ### 2/5 — Got Boring After a While *2017-02-16* Two stars is as far as I'm going with this one. Because after a while it started to get really boring. Polar bears barely appear so it takes a bit just to evolve. The video for five more bears doesn't even work so I don't understand the point of having that. ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2017-02-03, version 1.0* Why so many ads ? ### 4/5 — Polar beer game *2017-01-30* Good game but I think the spawning of the Polaris should go faster I am very satisfied with this game though. ### 4/5 — Great game *2016-07-01, version 1.0* Need more bears ### 3/5 — It's ok *2016-04-25, version 1.0* The game is ok but it takes to long to evolve the bear ### 3/5 — O̺͆k̺͆ b̺͆u̺͆t̺͆ s̺͆p̺͆a̺͆w̺͆n̺͆ p̺͆r̺͆o̺͆b̺͆l̺͆e̺͆m̺͆s̺͆ *2016-02-17, version 1.0* I̺͆t̺͆s̺͆ o̺͆k̺͆ b̺͆u̺͆t̺͆ t̺͆h̺͆e̺͆ w̺͆a̺͆i̺͆t̺͆ f̺͆o̺͆r̺͆ 🐻s̺͆ t̺͆o̺͆ s̺͆p̺͆a̺͆w̺͆n̺͆ i̺͆s̺͆ a̺͆n̺͆n̺͆o̺͆y̺͆i̺͆n̺͆g̺͆ ### 4/5 — Good but..... *2016-02-14* This game is a good time waster, it's fun to see what they came up with and such, but, it takes to long for bears to spawn! I dislike the spawn time for them and it's just annoying. Fix and get 5 stars. ### 3/5 — Ok *2016-02-08, version 1.0* It's an ok game it just takes a long time for bears to spawn ### 3/5 — Simple Little Game *2015-12-21* Fun waste of time. Don't look for a challenge, just a cute little finger tapper. Nicely designed and simple. ### 4/5 — Polar bears *2015-12-12* You have to wait a little after you kill all the polar bears you get, but besides that it's a pretty fun game and it exciting to see what you evolve into next ### 4/5 — PBE *2015-12-12* Love the game! it's so much fun and great game. but the ads are kinda annoying. also sometimes I have to wait a long time for polar bears to come up.. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lag *2020-09-02, version 1.0* Dident let me on the game ### 1/5 — I can’t even get in!! *2020-07-24, version 1.0* The game kicked my pit so many times.
