Alphabear

I like this game. It's fun and adorable, but I would like to see a better way to challenge my friends than posting to facebook or sending emails/texts. Other games like Trivia Crack figured this out perfectly. A group of us regularly play together because it's simple to just click on their names, and they get a notification on their phone that there is a challenge waiting. I won't be playing much verses until there is a better way to invite people to a challenge.

I love this game. At first i used it just to waste time. But my 4 yr old son started playing with me and I think its a great tool for him to practice both his alphabet identification as well as spelling. In the beginning I would spell the words and he would type the letters in, but now that we've been playing for a few weeks he is able to find more and more of his own words!

A fun highly polished game with a quirky style. Alphabear has charm but lacks depth, getting repetitive and grindy fast. Found myself lacking motivation to play. A few ideas for improvement could be the addition of a story mode and leaderboards (maybe tied to a weekly challenge). Fun to play on the go but little replayability. Good for players who want something simple and stress free.

The game is adorable, and I love collecting all of the cute bears and using their abilities. It's a word game with a fresh twist. Unfortunately however the difficulty level goes up exponentially very quickly. I recommended the game to a younger sister (like junior high level), and it was fairly difficult for her to keep up. Even with me being generally decent with word games, this game got too challenging too quickly. Somewhat disappointed. =/

Easy-to-understand simplified scrabble. Characters are cute. The games mechanics are simple but the puzzles scale and get more challenging, so it holds attention. I can see why someone might spend a little bit of money on it, but it's not required for it to be fun. I do notice an error on the page for selecting bears prior to a puzzle - I'll have to touch bear several times before it is selected. Overall though a funny, smart puzzle game and another good piece from Spry Fox.

I LOVE the concept of this game, but I would love it more and would play it more often if it didn't relegate you to an offline game mode. It sucks not being able to play the campaigns while I'm commuting on train with no cell reception. Also, while selecting your bears before a stage, the game doesn't always seem responsive when I click on a bear. Not a huge deal, but it's just a small pain point that could be improved on.

Its a cute word game. I like how you can collect different bears, level up previously collected bears, and actually use them to affect your game. You also don't need an extensive vocabulary. My only complaint is how little I get actually to play. I don't get enough of the currency to cover enough playtime to last my lunchbreak, but I don't wanna waste money on a word app.

This game is designed to be get your money two ways. You have to have honey to play levels and coins to get better bears. Only, the "hourly coin bonus" doesn't really work... it usually triggers 2x daily, at best... so without ponying up cash, you won't be able to really get full enjoyment out of the game. Pass on this one.

This game is cute, fun, and addictive, so I purchased it. And yet after paying $5 I still have to wait a day before I play the next level?? That's completely stupid. Play this, but don't bother buying it. What good is unlimited honey when you have to play the same 2 levels over and over??

Fun, great time killer. Put together very well. There isn't any annoyances or huge emphasis on paying for extras. Oh and bears are cool. EDIT: bought infinite honey because the game is awesome and devs deserve it! The developers don't emphasise greed in the slightest and not having infinite honey or buying coins doesn't cripple gameplay. Monthly events are cool too. Excellent developer... please keep making great games and don't turn into Miniclip, EA or Rovio! :)

I always delete games shortly after losing interest but I plan on continuing this one for a long time. My only critique is that the game's vocabulary should be updated/extended because there have been a couple times where I tried legitimate words and they were not accepted.

The game freezes up sometimes, but other than its fun, innovative, keeps you on your toes, and I never grow bored of it. I would recommend it to people who have kids, so their kids can have fun and learn at the same time. You don't get a lot of games that are kid-friendly and educate at the same time!

Alphabear is pretty easy (takes a while to get tough). The bears sleep and you can pay money to wake, but I never felt that I needed to. Most levels have no timer so you can guess words (and maybe learn something). There are timer levels for more challenge.

I'M OBSESSED. The bears are adorable, the gameplay is seamless. Definitely a good brain workout to be addicted to. It would be even cooler if, after each level, it shows what words could have been made with the letters available, with the words being links that, when clicked or tapped, show the definition, to make it educational and expand one's vocabulary as well! Plspls! :D

Absolutely love this game. I Usually don't do reviews but this one deserved it. First, it's absolutely beautiful. Second, it's not addicting to the point where your annoyed. It's challenging but not impossible. It's very fun and can't believe how much I like it. But how do I play without giving permission to access my photos? And why is that necessary, take it out, you don't need that permission.

Game overall runs great on a nexus 7. Had one issue where game stopped too soon with time still available and some valid words were not accepted. These happen very rarely, and the game overall is fantastic. Update: Restarted playing after a year and alphabear recovered my account. However, after about a few weeks my entire progress was deleted. Downgraded rating to three stars.

Lovely word game with a twist. Somewhat frustrating when you're really close to getting the second objective :) you need to wait to get more honey which lets you play the stages, but with unlimited honey for £4, I am quite tempted to get that! There is also in game currency which allows you to reuse bonuses sooner, but I haven't actually used that.

There's not one bad thing about this game. It's cute, fun, and challanges the brain. At first I did awful and could hardly make a five letter word, now I can make six to seven! It really does help the brain be creative and think. Plus, the bears are just so gash darn adorable!!! It's like it's a bonus!

Pleasant surprise. I was looking for a nice filler/killer game and happened on this. It's challenging to the extent of yourself (make it as difficult as your mind allows). The energy is pretty low, so you can only play for so long before having to recharge. Minor issues- good game

Simple concept, remarkable depth - level 10 completion required a strategy with my bear choices (as well as one good word and leveling said bears just a bit). There is a problem, though - the end of daylight savings time means I can't log in at the moment due to clock issues. :-(

This game is good. However, even if you pay for unlimited honeycomb you're still hogtied on how often you can play because bears sleep, sometimes for half a day! It's ridiculous. I paid money to play this game but I can only play every 2 hours? Nonsense! Remove this for paying players and this app will be a 5 star app for sure. It runs well, has good graphics and a cute concept.

Really cute little game. No annoying ads but the possibility to gain some extra honey or bear money by watching some. The bears run out of honey pretty fast so it is not a game that keeps one occupied for a long time but that is perfectly fine imo. I really enjoy this game - it is fun, cute & entertaining. :)

It's a good game, and running smoothly when I'm online. But when I tried to play offline, it said "please correct your phone clock and try to connect the internet later". My phone's time is fine, and I tried to fix it when I'm online but it still didn't work. It a shame really, I really like this game. And I want to play it too when I have no internet connection :(

The gameplay is very straightforward, fun, and at the same time challenging. Timed modes up the difficulty and force you to think fast. As someone who has chronic writer's block, it's a great way to exercise your brain while having fun. The graphics are wonderful and the design of the bears, as well as the different themed chapters, are all very well done. It's an enjoyable game for everyone regardless of your vocabulary level. I definitely recommend it!

The artwork and music is very satisfying. The purpose of the bears is somewhat unclear, plus the reset timers are hours long. It's a fun, challenging game, but you'll spend more time watching adverts to play the game than you will spend playing it.

It's so fun and addictive! I totally recommend it. There are just some stuff that I don't understand how works, like how is the pontuaction chosen for each letter? Is there a pattern or is it randomly? Or why certain letters disappear and others don't? Why is there time to play just in some matches? A lot of stuff in the game seems random and I was curious about that. However, that doesn't take all the fun in it!

Each round costs points to play. Points build over time, but there is a cap. Depending on the day cost varies. Most days I can only play one or two rounds before having to wait for points to build up again, makes it a pain to bother playing. There are plenty of other similar word games that I can play endlessly.

I love that you can get different bears. They're all so cute! I ignored this game at first and I regret doing that now when I play this game. It's perfect. One thing that should change, though, is the offline play. You should make all of the levels playable offline, in my opinion. Other than that, I love the game.

Regardless it has some obvious shortcomings from the 120 honey cap, to the absence of a verification for spending your coins I accidentally lost hundreds very annoying it may be my fault but you aren't doing your part

Loved this game until it updated and wiped my progress. After postibg my disappointment on here, Spryfox contacted me and helped me get my bears back. Was very impressed by their fast response!

I'm not even a fan of word games, but these adorable bears have won me over! I'd give it 5 stars, but waiting around for more honey kinda sucks :P

I love puzzle games and this is more of a pleasant surprise. It's cute bears with adorable costumes, unintentional hilarious moments, and has the ability to waste your time while increasing your vernacular. Download this game.

I really like the game, having lots of fun! But after a $5 in app purchase everything should be unlocked...still have to watch ads or buy coins to make the bears wake up.

Love this game. The only fault I have with it is after doing a factory reset on my phone and reinstalling the app, I lost all my progress and my whole collection of bears which took me months to acquire. Now Im starting over again from scratch. Still tho, fantastic game.

I'm hooked on this game. Animations are adorable. I just wish there were more ways to play without using so much honey so I could play more games in one sitting!!

Just one of the best word games I have ever played. The bears are cut and I find it fun to collect them. This game will not disappoint you! The one thing is, if you play a few levels and enjoy the game, then I recommend buying the infinite honey, because otherwise you might have difficulty progressing.

This is a fun and challenging game. You get to make your own words out of the letters. It is fun to see the bears stretch so wide and tall. This is a game that I dont feel bad when my kid is always playing.

It's like a whole new way to scrabble solo! I'm addicted! The game can be paused if your at work, then pick back up when it's convenient! I would love you earn coins and honey other ways then paying. I want to be able to collect all the bears not just increase power on a couple of the same ones all the time.

Game play and variety is fantastic. Very fun and varied. Quickly bought the unlimited honey option to enable more play. But the difficulty ramps up at such a steep slope relative to the bears' bonuses that it becomes impossible to pass thresholds without ideal play and the best bears. This means I need to wait 12 hours for refresh, or use coins to reawake or acquire more bears. Id be ok with this but even a chance to get a bear would be $5. This is a really high price for the value.
