Build-A-Bearville
released on Dec 31, 2007
Bearville (formally known as Build-A-Bearville) was an online multiplayer game which opened in late October 2007 and closed in March 2015. The game was opened to further promote the Build A Bear Workshop franchise and allow kids to have a more magical experience; it allowed them to bring their bears - which were called 'Furry Friends' - to life and play with them in an online community, which involved many activities such as minigames and making new friends.

screaming and crying and throwing up and pissing and shitting on the floor :(
forever in my heart
i miss her every day
i forgot about this game until i found it on one of my few yearly internet browser checks, this was super cute! didn't play it much though
I remember making an account for this game when I was 9 since that was part of my password, so it must have been in 2010 when I started playing this. I remember thinking it was the coolest thing ever that I could have my own house and decorate it, as well as have my build-a-bear animals come alive in this game. I grew out of it before it closed down and I actually just learned that it did close down, only 7 years later.
It was exactly what you think it is. It was an MMO where you walked around the digital world, customized your character and house, and played minigames; pretty much exactly Club Penguin with a reskin. That's all I really remember from this game but I think it served its purpose of further promoting their brand since you could only play if you had a code for a build-a-bear animal's birth certificate, which meant you had to buy one.
I know this isn't much of a review but remembering this game was a rush of nostalgia for me and I actually had to make the page for this game on IGDB since I couldn't find it. It must just be a really niche game. This game was more than enough for my 9 year old self to enjoy.
