A quick little 3d adventure where you play as a bear that is also a lumberjack who is cutting down all of the local man made contraptions to reclaim his land. The game doesn't demand too much from you and has a "my first game" vibe to it but it does have a lot of personality. Sort of like a playable kids cartoon show, in a way.

The game is very cute and has a lot of personality. You destroy all the contraptions/buildings in a level with your axe and with the help of your woodland friends (like standing on a swimming turtle to reach certain objects, or escorting your porcupine friend through a structure as he knocks things down for you to destroy).

However, the gameplay itself is a bit limited. There are basically 2 kinds of levels. One where you destroy items around the environment, collect the debris and upgrade your axe that will help you destroy the bigger items.

The other type of level has you sporting a tennis racket and you use the physics in the world to bounce bombs around to destroy everything around you.

Both are a lot of fun at first but once you get through a couple levels, it feels very redundant. They do try to keep things fresh with new environments and new buildings/contraptions to destroy, but it would’ve been nice to have at least one more mechanic to spice things up a bit.

I think this will be a great first game for my son once he starts getting into gaming more. I think adults, especially if you're turned off by cutesy characters, will be looking for more than what this has to offer.
