**Bear and Breakfast** is a management adventure game developed by **Gummy Cat Studio** hailing from Romania. The game is published by **Armor Games Studios** from Irvine, California. The players take on the role of Hank, a big and friendly brown bear, and begin to renovate an abandoned building in the middle of the forest.

## Official description

> Bear and Breakfast is a laid-back management adventure game where you play as a well-meaning bear trying to run a B+B in the woods. Hank and his friends find an abandoned shack and, equipped with their teenage ingenuity, turn it into a money-making bed and breakfast scheme for unsuspecting tourists. As your business expands so do the mysteries of the forest, and Hank soon finds himself uncovering a plot deeper than the wilderness itself.
>  Moving through the story-rich world of Bear and Breakfast will have you stumbling on dozens of interesting folks and weirdos, much like yourself. Most of them have something to say about your endeavors and if you take some time out of your day to listen, they might help your build your shack to new heights! Not everyone is as helpful or as needy though. Are you bear enough to search deep within the forest and your soul to find the mysteries that lie within?
