Bear with Me received generally positive reviews. Adventure Gamers, in a review for all three episodes, praised its story, art style and the well integration of puzzles, but criticized the slow movement speed, and the occasional frustration, giving it 3½ out of 5.[10] Italian magazine The Games Machine gave it 7.9 out of 10, stating "Bear With Me is a nice, old-style point and click adventure, with logical and well designed puzzles, although not too challenging, and a story that blends humour and drama. Not a milestone in the genre, but adventure fans should give it a chance.".[11]

### Episode 1

Hardcore Gamer was less positive in its review for the first episode of the series, arguing "The first episode of Bear With Me still hints at a greater game to come, nicely setting a proper noir tone with some occasional creepy bits and a gleeful dose of snark throughout.", but "it sadly says a lot that the initial outing feels more like a demo for the game than an actual full-fledged chapter of the story."[12] LeveL magazine, on the other hand, gave it 8/10 and praised it as "The first episode of a dark adventure, where childlike elements are mixed with an adult story in a perfect harmony of a noir story".[13][7]
