Battle Bears
When it comes to iPhone games, few are as unique in their approach as the recently released Battle Bears title from developer SkyVu Pictures. Players control a rampaging teddy bear and gun down opposing bears in this first person shooter. All of the violence in the game is cartoonish and over the top, but still the title is not geared towards children.
Players will take on the role of a teddy bear that has been caught behind enemy lines and must battle its way out by choosing from a large arsenal of weapons including an assault rifle that contains unlimited ammo and secondary weapons such as unicorn blood toxic to your opponents, a crossbow made from a unicorn’s horn, a profanity megaphone, a pot of gold used to devour their souls and a bearzooka to shoot the limbs of your fallen enemies. Sand bags and other defensive counter measures are also available to protect the player as the rounds progress and the action grows more intense. The controls were designed to be easily grasped after a brief tutorial so that players can get directly into the action within minutes.
SkyVu intended the game as a comical farce of fairy tale violence, but potential gamers will want to take note that the gore can be intense if the gore mode is turned on. The protagonist featured in the game does tend towards high levels of what many may consider to be inappropriate language so the game is clearly aimed at a more mature audience.
Battle Bears is available for download with a $1.00 price tag.
