### 4/5 — Love the game

*2025-01-12, version 1.0*

This game is amazing. The plentiful of stories I've had in this game have been great. Though one Little problem I've been having is that after I close the game once,it won't open again. I've tried alot of things and it's not fixed the problem.

### 4/5 — Problem (PLZ READ!!!)

*2024-11-14, version 1.0*

Hi! This happened today: I was searching for a game to play, and I chose polar bear sim2. But right when it got in the loading screen, the game went back to my Gluten Free Games section! I tried this one more time, and it did the same thing! Plz fix!

### 4/5 — I thing

*2024-10-14*

In one of the polar bears home so there’s a button that you hold and it will unblock the space but when I try to do that it takes me out of the game and back to my Home Screen 🖥️ please can you fix this❤️🥰👍👍👍👌👌🎃💧💤

### 3/5 — Won’t let me play

*2023-12-02, version 1.0*

I don’t know what is wrong, but it seems to not let me on the game. Please fix this and I will put it back to 5 stars, because before, it let me on the game all the time

### 4/5 — Ok

*2023-10-31, version 1.0*

The boulder when you get a den at the end of the map I killed the boos then when I try and remove the boulder it’s crashes and kicked me off fix it pls good game worth it and it kicked me out when I try and doing the ice boss in the middle 😋

### 3/5 — Crash problem

*2023-09-03, version 1.0*

It crashes every time I challenge the bosses

### 4/5 — It’s great but it has an issue.

*2023-07-26*

Can you PLEASE fix the glitching out?? I don’t wanna start over again and again from the same place. For example: Whenever I climb a huge mountain, I get to the top and it kicks me out every single time. It’s so annoying! Plus: the cleaning does not work. I wish you could fix these issues, please 🫶🏼💕

### 4/5 — GLITCHES

*2023-05-16, version 1.0*

There are 4 bugs that drive me insane so one is the male profile has a mane! A lions mane!!! So fix that pls and 2 is that I call it a “rag doll bug” were if you kill something it like explodes it gets all glitchy and weed but 3 is when defeated the rock/earth it said I can unlock the den but it didn’t work!!! And 4 is when I first login it doesn’t work! Second time it does. Thank y’all I’m a BIG fan but it could use some work. Thank you gluten free games. P.S you don’t have to read all.

### 4/5 — This game is good but…

*2022-12-29, version 1.0*

…2 of the bosses you can’t fight. The ice spirit causes the game to crash after a little bit of fighting. The wind spirit has the force field around them the whole time, so you can’t really hurt them. Also, I think you should be able to go underwater, like in the other polar bear games. Could you please fix all this? If you do, I will rate this game 5 stars! I don’t care if it takes a long time, just as long as you get the job done!

### 3/5 — Great game! But...

*2022-07-13, version 1.0*

Hi I’m Lola and it is such A great app but... 
after I play it for a while it crashes so I don’t get to play it please fix it please?! But otherwise awesome game great job keep it up!

### 4/5 — >_<

*2022-06-30, version 1.0*

I love this game but there is some glitches!!! 

1. I want to unlock the last den then I have them all, but it just logs me out when i get close! 

2. This is not a big glitch but when i fight my mate his feet twist backwards -_-

3. I fall through the water around the ice boss and it's super annoying! 

I love gluten free games! But plz fix these! Tysm!

### 4/5 — Great Game, Crashing Bug Won’t Let Me Back In Game

*2022-06-23, version 1.0*

It was working fine until I exited the app, I tried to get back in and it just crashes 2 seconds after it’s done loading. Please fix this bug. Otherwise I would’ve gave 5 stars

### 4/5 — It’s good, but…

*2022-05-06, version 1.0*

1| I can’t get anywhere near the rock spirit.
2| The ice spirit just turns into a gem in the middle of the battle
3| WHERE THE [beep] IS THE WIND SPIRIT!!!!!!??????
Otherwise, awesome 👏

### 4/5 — It is really good... but

*2022-02-11, version 1.0*

So, I really don’t want to be rude but I think what happened was you made the bears based off the loins so they roar just like a lion and it gives the bear icons a mane sometimes... also the water, I can just run though it. I love the game a lot though.

### 3/5 — Smh

*2021-10-06, version 1.0*

I have all of the part 2 games that have just came out so I was intrigued by this one. I got a good day out of playing it made it to level 10, finally added another polar to the pack, and the game started crashing. Everytime I opened it it would get past the intro then as soon as the game starts I get kicked out of it. Going to delete and redownload hopefully the problem doesn’t persist. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

### 3/5 — Great at first

*2021-09-18, version 1.0*

I love all these games and I’ve had this one for a while, but now I can’t even play it. Ever time I try to open it I’m kicked out immediately and there is nothing I can do. I really like this game and hope they fix this problem.Even though they probably won’t because they never update they’re games once it’s released.

### 1/5 — Every time…

*2025-11-11, version 1.0*

So when I went on to play, I did the normal stuff, like hunt and mate. After that my I pad time was up. So the next day, I go to play and as soon as I get in it kicks me out! PLS fix this glitch!

### 1/5 — PLEASE READ

*2024-02-12, version 1.0*

this game is genuinely so amazing. But here recently I haven't been able to open this app? Why won’t my game load? Why dose it keep kicking me out. I love love love love this game! Great features. Great graphics. Beautiful game but please fix this issue

### 1/5 — Crashes all the time

*2024-01-22, version 1.0*

Looks great but I can’t play anymore.  The game crashes every time I open it.  I have only had it 3 days and very disappointed with my purchase.  If anyone figures out how to fix this, I’m all ears.

### 1/5 — Bugs /Glitches

*2023-04-01, version 1.0*

The game Glitches out and won’t let me pay pass a  level 5 bear. This game its free and i cant even play it nor get my money back for it i would like my money back and or i will not recommend this games……

### 1/5 — So um same problem here

*2021-09-06, version 1.0*

I wrote a review about game bailing on me in horse simulator 2 and then I got this game and same problem so please fix it’s a waste of money right now

### 1/5 — Glitched..

*2021-05-01, version 1.0*

So my game glitched after a while of playing. I was on level 17 when it suddenly stopped allowing me to go into companions. It didn’t allow me to switch characters either. No matter how many times i refreshed my game it wouldn’t’t go back to normal. It’s a great game, really, I would just appreciate if you could work more on fixing bugs and issues instead of making more simulators.

### 1/5 — Great potential

*2021-02-05, version 1.0*

I love these games but they shut down randomly throughout gameplay which is really annoying! ☹️ They are great simulation  games but it’s a shame things like crashes and bugs put people off playing more. Gluten Free developers they all require bug fixes and updates!!

### 1/5 — It’s cool

*2020-09-08, version 1.0*

I really love this game, it’s fun to play and my cubs are ADORABLE. But please make a Ultdragon 2... they are my favourite mythical animal. Please make one. I bet a lot of people want it just as much as me!!! 🤗😜😐😢🥺

### 1/5 — It’s mean

*2020-08-24, version 1.0*

### 1/5 — Crashing on loading screen.

*2020-07-31, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS GAME SOOOO MUCH!!! (PLEASE READ!)

*2024-10-11, version 1.0*

Love this game! So much to explore! But there are a few glitches.
A little bit in the boss battle you have a weird glitch where it exits you 
out of the whole game. But other than that, there is so much fun stuff!
Explore, grow, hunt, mate, survive!! I love how realistic the games are! 
Keep up all the fun games!!! You will love this game other than the glitch!! Just have fun with all of the details!! The seasons change!
There are different skins too! I love this game more than ever! 
You can change your height, how big your head is, how big your ears are, how long your tail is, and how big your paws are!! I love this game!
I recommend it for everyone who likes animals or polar bears!! Thank you bye! ✌️

### 5/5 — Crashing Problem

### 5/5 — Amazing game also a lot of hate reviews

*2023-06-04, version 1.0*

A lot of hate reviews by Mderios just ignore them and please continue to make amazing games!

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2023-02-02, version 1.0*

The description speaks for itself. Nothing more, nothing less. (Not in a Bad way.) I, personally, found out about these due to one particular YouTuber who would play Ultimate Bird Simulator. I decided to try some of these games. Sitting here, thinking about it, I never really acknowledged how beautiful the graphics are. Sure, they’re buggy and sometimes don’t work right; but the scenery and the colors are all so gorgeous. It’s definitely worth the 99 cents and even though these games could use improvement, let’s all take a moment and appreciate the beauty in these simulators. Now, for this polar bear simulator, grab some smoked salmon and get cozy on the couch, because the best polar bear game is in! 

(5/5)

### 5/5 — It’s good but…

*2022-03-12, version 1.0*

This game is amazing and you should keep making the a ultsnake2 would be awesome! I have one problem from this game though, whenever I try to break the rocks into a den it would kick me off the app pls fix this but an amazing game overall

### 5/5 — AWESOME 🤩

*2021-12-30, version 1.0*

The polar bear model is STUNNING! But I don’t like it how you can die from the cold because I don’t know how to warm up, but I think you can warm up, if you have the came fire? I tried going in my Hotspring, but I still died😭anyway you gotta make a Dragon simulator 2👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️🐻‍❄️
