    Each new episode of the "Bear With Me" game series is like opening a box of your favorite cherry chocolates. You seem to know their taste, for so many times you have already managed to get used to their aroma and aftertaste, but they are so loved that you close your eyes and enjoy it incredibly. "The Lost Robots" is a prequel to the three episodes that came out earlier, again returning us to the foggy streets of Paper City, where under the dense noir cigarette smoke, as if covering the whole…

    INDIE GAME RECOMMENDATION, ESPECIALLY FOR LINGUISTS (VERY ODDLY SPECIFIC RECCOMENDATION BUT BEAR WITH ME) I've been playing a shitton of Chants of Sennaar tonight and it feels very much like Obra Dinn if you were a linguist reconstructing a language from people's body language and random signage

    Review in deutscher Sprache siehe unten Welcome (back) to Paper City! "Bear With Me: The Lost Robots" takes us back to Paper City. The story is set before the other three parts and can be summarized quite quickly: robots disappear in the city, and so there's a new case for Ted E. Bear. This time he is assisted by Amber's brother Flint. To find out what's going on in Paper City, they snoop around and search for clues. The puzzles are quite simple and I was never frustrated because I was…

    I was a little confused when purchasing the Complete Collection Bundle so I want to clarify it for others. The Complete Collection has Episode one, two, three and the prequel: Lost Robots games. Even though the description says it contains all prior episodes, the only things in my cart were the Lost Robots and the DLC for the Lost Robots. It doesn't make sense for the first three episodes to be lumped in with the latest release (the prequel) but that's what they've done. Not a fan of how it…

    Bear With Me: The Lost Robots is a point and click adventure game with an emphasis on telling a whimsical story while be ironically coated in a noir theme. The main two protagonists are Flint, a young boy, and Ted E. Bear, a rugged yet secretly compassionate detective past his prime. You follow these two throughout Paper City as they banter back and forth while unraveling the mystery behind the missing robots. Immediately you are tossed into the point-and-click action with very little…

    THE (yes, all caps) main reason why I don't recommend this game is, after two episodes of a parody or child play of a typical noir detective story, devs made ye olde switcheroo and completely changed the genre. That wouldn't have been that much of a problem per se, but what they switched to is almost psychological horror that is capable of triggering a rather large portion of people. ... That's besides rather creepy issue of sexual jokes/innuendo/themes with/towards the 10 years old character…

    Bear With Me: The Lost Robots is a short prequel to the point and click game Bear With Me. In this game you play as Flint, Amber's older brother, who is filling in for Amber to help detective Ted E Bear on a case. The plot is pretty simple: Ted and Flint have to find out who or what is behind the disappearances of a number of Paper City's robot citizens. They go to various locations around the city, following a trail of clues that leads them to the ultimate culprit. The plot of this episode…

    I'll start by saying I loved the first "Bear With Me," game. My favorite character is Ted E. Bear so I was looking forward to playing this prequel. Sadly this lone chapter didn't live up to my expectations. What I loved best about the original game is how I could emotional connect to the characters and the story. In my opinion, we could have done without this one. It's eluded to in the original game but unnecessary. Amber was a much more interesting character. Flint was just kind of there.

    Bear With Me: The Lost Robots is a prequel to the game Bear With Me. It's quite enjoyable whether you're familiar with the games or not. However, without giving any spoilers, there's a few parts that have a bit more impact if you've played the original game. Puzzles aren't too difficult and can be solved through trial and error easily enough. Dialogue is quite funny, with the kid Flint as a soft-spoken and sometimes snarky character who's fun to play as. If this is your first foray…

    Note for achievement hunters: the achievements are broken among this and the main game, where achievements for both are listed for both but can only be obtained in one game or the other. Noir detective game but it's with animals and imaginary cities. Nice comic book graphics, very polished looking. Lots of dialogue, perhaps a bit much at times. Plot with robots, fish people, jazz bars, cyborg car mechanic and shady offices. The bear is a little obnoxious but relatable. Kid's alright, felt…

    If you’ve played Bear with Me and liked it, you are already familiar with the odd pair – a young child in despair and a noir detective-like plush bear. Well, in this case, the kiddo is the brother, and he’s not as emotional or engaged as his sister was in the original story. This said, the lighter story and development doesn’t ruin the story at all. Instead, we can easily focus on the way the maker carefully created a unrelated event which unravels in front of our eyes, proving that even once…

    A much shorter game, about 3 hours compared to 8 hours of the original but still the same feel to it. The dialogue amusing and in true Film Noir style. Amber's brother this time aiding the intrepid Ted E. Bear in his investigations. A delight to play and a couple of tricky puzzles but nothing too strenuous and then the final act. After playing the first game I knew what had happened and to see the train ride which seemed so innocuous but knowing the reality behind it was something beautiful…

    The game is very good. It's really small, to be honest, but its price is low, so it's understandable. The game is offering a bit of everything (comics, puzzles, the classic search-and-combine-items thingy, dialogues, locations, characters, etc.). You won't see any of these in abundance, because, as I said before, it's a small game. You don't need to play the previous episodes in order to understand what's happening, since it's a prequel, but I'd certainly advise you to do that, since they have…

    I have finished Bear With Me: The Lost Robots and the Episode One already. And I'd like to say the puzzles in these games are literally pieces of sh*t. You will be stuck if you overlooked some inconspicuous items that could be used to solve the puzzles. Imaging that a code of safe is under a statue in the other room, before you need a code to unlock the safe, you can't find hints that the safe's code have anything to do with the statue. it's a lame trick and in the games all the time.

    Bear With Me: The Lost Robots As a huge fan of puzzle games, I absolutely loved Bear With Me. The first time that I got familiar with it was through Bear With Me: The Collector’s Edition. Back then, the game had the 3 main chapters, where Amber and Ted were the stars. At first it was quite lukewarm. Just a girl playing with her toys, fantasizing about solving crimes and mysteries with a touch of an old noir film. But as you keep playing, the game creates a bigger mystery. Sooner or later we…

    Having finished the 3 episodes, though still doing the prequel, I quickly grew to adore this series. It's a point and click adventure story game, a tried and true concept, and these types of games tend to have lovely stories and voice acting. The story is on the complex side, and the characters all have a lot of personality. Having finished the 3 main episodes just recently, I already greatly miss the characters. That might be me being the sentimental sort, but I really yearn for more of them.…

    I really wanted to like this game, I just couldn't get involved into the story as much as I would have liked to. There were some funny parts but it just felt flat overall to me. The puzzles were overly difficult and I constantly had to look up a guide as I was lost on what to do next. I think there are better point and clicks with better directions than this one ,unfortunately.

    Like its teddy bear lead, I'm charmed by the rough patches of Bear with Me far more than I'm annoyed by them. There are a couple of very minor environmental bugs, some pixel-hunting, and jokes that fall flat, but it's all so earnestly told that in the end I really loved this as much as the original series of games. As a point-and-click adventure, it's strictly by the books, and that's a good thing in my opinion. You find objects, you use those objects on other objects, you know how it goes…

    This is a first impressions style of review, as I haven't finished the game, and I'm part way through what I guess is the prequel. Firstly, I love the art style. Growing up, seeing some Don Bluth animations, and Space Ace / Dragons Lair arcade games, the cartoon quality animations always made me go "wow". Now we take it for granted. However this is one of those games that makes you go "wow", with the film noir 1930's / 1940's style, with the modern animation. I really do like it. And…

    Bear With Me: The Lost Robots, developed by Exordium Games and published by Miyagi Games, serves as a compelling prequel to the beloved episodic noir adventure series Bear With Me. Released in mid-2019, this point-and-click adventure expands on the dark, atmospheric world of Paper City, offering players a glimpse into the earlier days of the hard-boiled detective Ted E. Bear and his human partner Flint Ashworth. The game effectively combines noir storytelling with hand-drawn visuals and a…

    Good prequel, but it is better served after completing the main game in fact. The main game has more charm and humor, but overall I am happy this prequel exists. Although, beware because the puzzles are cumbersome and just when you think you messed up the solution you just misclicked because of the dark colors and no highlighting system of possible interactions (at least any that I could activate). Also sometimes you think you need to something but in fact you need to go back to the some…

    Highly recommend this game to any players who like point and click adventures. It is a really clever game, which becomes more apparent on the second play through - the names and characteristics of the characters become quite poignant once you know what the ending is, while the first play through is merely quite witty. Other comments mention broken achievements - these all worked for me so perhaps an issue that has been resolved.

    A trully masterfully made little game that at first glance seem to have no right to actually be as good as it is. Bear with me is a mix of a noir style detective narrative, with some clever humor sprinkled in that at times is way to cynical to be targeted at children, so don't be fooled by the graphics style. To top the noir atmosphere there's a very layered narrative that can be enjoyed both by kids on a surface level (with the cute looking characters) or on a deeper level by adults who might…

The interface is clean, voice acting is spot on, story is tight and very well done. Any puzzles are fun and the various achievements are fun to go after and require only minimal reloading of saves.

The voice acting was perfect for all the characters, and most of the characters were unique and enjoyable. I didn't think I would like the black and white, but it worked in this game. It added to the gritty 60's gangsters vibe it was trying to emulate. It did it quite well, considering the characters were…
