Bear and Breakfast may be a whimsical management sim, but it's no vacation.
I identify with Hank, the ursine protagonist of Bear and Breakfast. Not just because I am also large, hairy, and fond of long naps, but because my winding journey through life had me renovating and running a small B&B out in the hinterlands for a few years. It's hard work, but it's satisfying when a guest has nothing but praise. I admit though, having Hank's charming friends and neighbors would have improved things greatly.
It's not especially complex or involved, with each room having stats for utility and aesthetics that you can improve by just adding more stuff to it. While this means it's pretty easy to hit target numbers to please guests, there's plenty of wiggle-room in how you arrange and decorate, leaving space for expressive design. Still, The Sims this ain't—which is especially clear in the lack of interaction with guests.
Making progress always feels worthwhile, though. Bear and Breakfast is a relatively simple but engaging game buoyed by vast amounts of charm. The environments are lush hand-drawn spaces, each region of the map dwarfing the little islands of business space you're managing. It feels like you're building something within the wilderness, rather than doing the usual videogame thing of bulldozing nature flat.
While I wish there was more interaction with Hank's pals early on, the dialogue almost always hits the mark. Hank's a good sort, well-meaning and gently self-deprecating. Many of the folks you'll meet will be sassy at first before softening and meeting Hank's pace, but there's still plenty of gags and goofs sprinkled in there.
