A LETTER FROM BEN: Using ARkit, we've brought to life our classic hit game BATTLE BEARS ZOMBIES. Players can experience Zombie Huggables & Unicorns chasing them in real life. Players simply tap to zap them away as long as they can. On sale for a limited time, players also get the 64-bit optimized award-winning offline campaign mode which won TouchArcade's Best Games of 2009 for its hilarious cutscenes, wacky weapons, and epic boss battles. With over 4 million downloads, we're happy to introduce AR to the BATTLE BEARS' iOS fan base with this epic new update that's under 150MB for space savings.
This is the first update for BB ZOMBIES in 5 beary long years! Thank you for everyone's patience and support. It's great to get a least one of our BB TRILOGY games updated to 64-bit for iOS 11. We're hard at work on revamping BB GOLD ROYALE with new weapons, new maps, new mode, chat and clans.

8 of 25Love this game. But here is the question. When do you think you will update the other games to iOS 11? Also will you?
When I was a little kid using an iPhone 5s I accidentally came along this game and downloaded the beta version when it was free, that was 7 years ago I had lost my iPhone 5 due to a incident of me falling down the stairs ever since I forgot about the game and I’ve always had a slight memory of it it wasn’t until 7 years later four days ago I accidentally again stumbled upon this game I was shocked to see it still in the App Store and still exactly how I remembered it That day was the day a big chunk of my childhood came back, although my childhood hasn’t ended yet and I’m still in the early/late teens it’s still the best thing I could’ve asked for. ~ sincerely The annoying little kid in elementary school that went thru puberty and is now good looking and kinda annoying still.
Why can’t I get battle bears -1 on iOS anymore
Its a beautiful game with great characters, and an amazing story. Though the best one that was made was battle bear fortress- which disappoints me it was canceled, like every other from the series.
This game was amazing……..AND IT STILL IS!
I love Battle bears what I want to Play the other Games in the Siri
I thought I would never see this game again, thank you for bringing a relic of my childhood back. I have been playing Battle Bears since this game was released and I’m excited to see what you guys will do next. I am hoping that one day you guys will update BB-1 so that we can play and enjoy it again. Thank you for your work and for the memories!
I feel like I’ve been cheated on this game!!! Whats the point of making a cool ad and have a trash game like this?!?
