If you like fun games, this is one for you.
You play as the creatively named and manically depressed "Naughty Bear" and your aim is to get back at all of the little bastards that never invite you anywhere because you were too busy being a little bastard – can anyone see a cycle here?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but have we been missing a fun game all of these years that actually takes our minds off out real life and makes us forget that our dogs or children need to be taken on walks or fed occasionally? This game fills in perfectly with hours of genocidal fun. You may have noticed I have said genocide a lot; this is purely because it is fun to say and not funny in general – Bad Hitler And before I get egged on my way home from where ever by touchy mentalists I do not agree with Hitler or the Nazis and all that blahdy blahdy blah. Now back to reviewing.
The graphics aren't much to look at and neither is the game play but the music alone is enough to put you in to a trance of some sort that will end in three empty bottles of tequila and an interrogated Mr cuddles or two. Overall it is pretty well balanced in a career sort of view if you can call it that. To be honest I wouldn't really expect much in the terms of game play from a game based on a teddy bear's picnic gone up s**t creek without a paddle but you will always get someone willing to differ.
Through your travels you come upon several different kinds of enemies such as robots, aliens, Rasta soldiers and a uni bear but we won't get too much into that, there is also a wide selection of costumes to unlock if you raise enough hell in the mean time. In terms of fun this game has lots to offer such as being a ninja or forcing an innocent bear into insanity and watching him pop with sheer terror and laughing at the name "Chubby", but like all good things it has to come to an end – and quite well, I might add, but you can always replay it. The game modes consist of the average Story Line, Killer, Insanity, Speed Run and the appropriately named Top Hat. The killer game type is pretty much what you would expect and quote; remember, be naughty, get points, rinse and repeat. The Insanity game mode is much more fun and a hell of a lot more rewarding, This is due to the fact that you drive your enemy bears insane to the point where their heads excrete blue bubbles of pure terror, and that you can make them commit suicide on the spot with no cleaning up required. Speed run is your average kill it with fire game type but instead of only fire you can use any weapon available and you have to kick the person who is on fire to make sure they die quicker completely ruining the entire "watch them burn LOL" side of things, but hey what you gonna do. And finally Top Hat mode, this mode sees you going through the already familiar stages with an exceedingly high score level and a set of tediously difficult enemies that you will need 4 toy chests, 2 camp fires and a partridge in a pair tree to kill without dying yourself. After each game you will be awarded a trophy that will go towards your total completion percentage and getting more crystal trophies means more costumes for you to dress up in.
Certain costumes grant you different statistics such as more health, speed, accuracy or strength and later on in the game these are all greatly welcome, plus they look pretty cool too. The outfits range from just hats to full skins of the other bears which helps a great deal as they help you walk amongst the others bears undetected.
One of the things I love are the variety of weapons you can have, from baseball bats to ray guns anyone can have a great time. There is also an online mode which I had the pleasure of playing, by that I mean get shot at whilst the objective is being stolen. I thoroughly enjoyed playing Naughty Bear and would happily play through it again but I have to take other people's opinions into account and will have to give it a 5/10 but if you're a free spirited or whatever that crap is called person like me it's a solid 7/10.
