Read full description

Welcome to the Bear Busters puzzle game where you need to help our beloved bear Friendky solve puzzles in his adventures. You need to match three identical characters and clear all paths for Friendky to continue his journey. During the game, you'll need tools to help you clear it faster, but some tools may slow you down. Of course, like any other adventurer, they always start with a great story, which is Friendky. Once upon a galaxy, there was Friendky, a bear full of wonder, with fur soft like clouds and eyes that sparkled like stars. Friendky built a spaceship called "Stellar Paws" and zoomed into space, ready for adventure. Joined by Dumby, a smart Kiddo, and Wishies, a rainbow lover, they faced tricky challenges. Time got all twisty, but their teamwork was a compass guiding them through. They triggered a space device that clone Friendky, but friends stood together and outsmarted those clones. In the Frozen Void, they warmed up with a comet, showing how clever thinking beats the coldest problems. They found hidden treasures and ancient coins in the galaxy. These led them to new friends with special skills, making their team stronger and more awesome. With coins, Friendky got cool tools from faraway places: ray gun that remove all the clones, frosty time for slowing the time, and magic wand of mystery. Each tool showed how much they'd grown as a team. But the biggest treasure? Friendship! Through ups and downs, their bond grew. A prophecy led them to a secret celestial world where they learned amazing things.
