Though this is a paid app, it is currently available to download for free (For a limited time).In the mysterious 'donut universe', which is looked over by the bear god and goddess Bues and Bera (Zues and Hera), there is a problem with over population. This is where you come in. They ask that you take over a doughnut for them, and upon it, raise some of their tiny bears. You get to choose one of the bears and raise it in your own way. If you are unhappy with it's appearance, fret not. You can change the way your bear looks. Everything from eyes, snout and belly, to colour, clothing and theme. You can even have a zombie or robot bear!
You start with one bear, but as you progress as a guardian you accumulate a second, and eventually a third bear.
Your bear can work for extra gold. There are 3 tasks available. Sushi picking, Robot saving and Street Patrol. They are each very simple mini games. The better you do, the more gold the bear earns. There is even a ranking board so that you can compete against your friends for the best score.You can also train your bear. This is a very important part of raising your bear. Depending on what you choose to train your bear in will determine what sort of occupation your bear qualifies for. There are 5 different areas you can train in. Artistry, Cleverness, Sociability, Stamina and Morality. The higher your bear's energy level during training, the more points they will acquire.
There are 2 training options available. Quick training and Hard training. I recommend "Hard". Quick training gives you the base points you'd earn, and goes through the animation process itself. The hard training gives you the base points however, during the animation, it releases gold coins, honey pots, gifts and extra stats that you can click on to earn as an added bonus.
Not sure what jobs are available for your little bear? When viewing your bear, 3 bubbles appear above it's head. The first is the gender icon. The second is it's current occupation and the last one is it's happiness level (Based on it's energy). Clicking on the occupation bubble will take you to your occupation card collecting screen. Click any card to see what the job is, and what the requirements are for that job. Then work your way toward that goal! You'll start out with a level 1. You can move up from there, but you can never get a job that's the same level or lower than your current job. So choose your path wisely. Each promotion also gives you a bonus item. These items can only be obtained through job promotion. Your job will give you money every day that you can use to train your bear, decorate your doughnut or buy things for your bear or bear buddies.
You may notice that there are stats that are not trainable. The closeness stat, for example. This is increased in many ways. You can increase it through regular training, by clicking the hearts that shoot out when you make your bear happy, and also by cleaning the dust clouds from your doughnut. If you spin your doughnut, or flick your bear up into the sky, you may sometimes see tiny yellow dust rings floating about. If you clean them all away (By shooting your bear through them) you will get some hearts. Click them to increase the closeness of your bear.
Another non-trainable stat is popularity. This can be improved by winning contests and going on dates. You can only have 100 popularity. It will not increase once you've reached that limit.You also have personal stats between your friends and you. your friendship stats. When you give gifts to your bear friends, or go on play dates, you increase your friendship stats between you and your guardian friend. They will then show up closer to the top of the list when you view your galaxy (Which is the list of all of your friend's doughnuts).
Contests are a fun part of the game. Not only do they give you a chance to improve your popularity stat, you can also win gold and prizes! The top 3 contestants get awards. And you have a new chance to compete, every 8 hours. The awards you have a chance to get are decorations for your doughnut that can't be purchased from the shoppe. Letter decorations, gold, honey pots and potions that can be used to change the way your bear looks. You can even send a screen capture of your victory to your Facebook page.
Want more to add to your Facebook? You can also have photos sent to Facebook from your dates. Your bear can date any bear that is of opposite gender and on your friend list (In your galaxy, basically). Just click the date icon under your bear when you're zoomed in, or go directly to your friend's doughnut planet and ask the bear directly. 
It costs 200 gold to ask for a date and the cost of whatever flower you choose to give to your bear's companion. You get to watch them go to "Lovelet" the Love planet. They may play video games at the arcade, listen to music, sit on a bench, sit on a couch, sit on the grass and watch the clouds... There are many different things available for the tiny bears to choose from. You also receive stats when you ask for a date (You do not receive stats when accepting a date). You can earn stamina, cleverness... any of the basic trainable stats. You'll also get popularity and closeness, plus a friendship boost. When looking for a date, always pay attention to the stat boost you'll get to choose the best. I never choose a date that gives less than 10 stat points. 20 is a good find. If there aren't any good ones, exit the date center and re-enter. You'll get a refreshed version. The more friends you have, the better your chance of getting a good bear to date.Lastly I'll cover the shopping district. There are 4 shops. One (Decor) for decorating your doughnut. You may purchase doughnuts, tiny decorations and letters. One is for Another (Wheel) is a chance shop. You use gold or honey pots to get a chance to spin the wheel to make your bear into a Zombie, Robot, Panda or Red Panda. You can also spend honey pots here to spin a wheel to receive special clothes and decor that you can only get through this chance shoppe. There is a shoppe (Dress) for clothing. You can buy hats, glasses, ties, tops and handheld items for your bears with gold and honey pots. Some items must be unlocked by achieving a particular level first. Lastly there is a shoppe (Morph) for changing the features of your bear. Eyes, brows, nose, snout, mouth, ears and colour. You can pay in gold and honey pots.
Over all I think this is a pretty fun game. I am happy to have had the chance to play for free. I doubt I would have downloaded it otherwise. I suggest getting it now, while it's still free. I believe the regular price is 1/99. It's not too bad at that price. I can tell a lot of work went into the game.
On the down side this game does have some glitches and bugs. I am hoping those get fixed. Sometimes you don't get your points or rewards, sometimes all of your energy drains out when you go to the galaxy screen and come back. I think that if they fix these bugs, this will be an even better game and get a better rating from me.
