The Bear - A Story from the World of Gra

''An interactive bedtime story for grown-ups young at heart'' 🌔✨ What a soft, warm, and wonderfull calming experience this was… honestly, just wow! I started this thinking i would play just one chapter before bed, like my friend suggested.. but yeah… that did not happen. It very quickly turned into a “just one more chapter” situation all the way to the end haha. The World of Gra feels like floating through a dream! Full of tiny planets and fish swimming through space. Everything is just so gentle, soft and quiet. I truely love it. it is short, yes, but it is just so beautifully and well written… it really stays with you, even after its over. 🤎 And the visuals; Completely adorable. truely. The hand-drawn animations gives such a unique, cozy charm to the whole game. This is the kind of experience that makes you slow down, breathe a little deeper, and just relax. Might be a tiny story… But a VERY big feeling 💫

One of the most beautiful, emotional, and above all imaginative games I've played lately. It's about some kind of cosmic creatures and their life cycle, very abstract, artistic and moving. The game is played with the mouse and consists of five chapters that can be replayed to change some decisions. It takes less than two hours to play, but it's well worth it. Also there's a demo where you can play the first chapter and then decide whether you like it or not. I recommend it, especially if you have a heart.

The Bear is a wonderful, soft, warm experience that truly feels like the perfect way to end the day and surrender your conscience to sleep. I am trying very hard to not finish this game too fast, as I know for a fact that I will miss it dearly once it is done, and it feels precisely like one of those experiences that are absolutely delicious and wonderful and the kind you will remember for years to come. The art is very cute and I love it! The musical landscape fits perfectly with the soft little world that it was created for, and the story. Oh the story! It reminds me so very much of Little prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry. Do your heart a favor and offer yourself the delight of experiencing this game!

Man i don't think a game has made me so emotional right from the start. It's a short game broken into chapters and every chapter is so beautifully written. The game is very simple yet deeply moving and there is something so cathartic about it. It captures this form of melancholy that is hard to put into words.

SUCH a charming and lovely story about companionship, growth, and all things that make up the space between! A short game, but a worthwhile one. Makes the player think about the beautiful moments life surprises us with when we least expect it. The art is so comforting, cute, and gentle. Bravo!

I rarely post reviews with an in-depth feedback. The Bear is a short game, but it is FULL and packed with feels. In such a short span, it hit my heart with nostalgia, understanding, compassion and even a sense of being able to let things go. A 45 minute game can do that? The artwork, the bear and the characters, they all remind me of the animated series Hilda and the Giants in that story. There's something about cosmic beings growing far beyond what we accept as "normal" but in reality Growth never truly stops. And this game gives that perspective in the most sweet and tender way.

8 minutes. 8 minutes is all it took to get me to start sobbing.

A really short, but beautifully written story that really tugs at the heartstrings.

A short, little gem of a game. A perfect little goodnight story, warm and touching. If you want a short relaxed bit of interactive fiction this one comes recommended.
