I want to play The Bear’s hilarious fake video game adaptation

Though terrific video game adaptations of popular movies and TV shows do exist, those seem to require the presence of lots of guns, high-octane action, a gripping mystery, or a mix of the three. You likely didn’t expect a great video game adaptation of a TV series about cooking such as The Bear to be in the cards — and that’s absolutely correct. Nobody did a video game adaptation of The Bear, but and his pal went through the trouble of modelling the entire world of the show, writin🃏g a bunch of hilarious voice lines, and voicing the characters to make a video of a fake and hilarious video game adaptation of the hit show.

The Bear is a mainstay in conversations about the best shows of the past few years. It does a great job of portraying true love for a craft, and the toll that it might take on one’s personal life. The show’s most memorable aspect, however, is remaining hilarious and even heart warming despite most of the dialogue being delivered by someone angrily screaming into their mic.

The first immediately hilarious moment of The Bear The Game is the difficulty settings menu. True to the show, Normal difficulty entails having every character screaming at every other character the entire time. “No Rush” difficulty, the option picked in the video, takes fans to a never-before-seen side of the show, a kitchen where Aphex Twin’s soothing plays in the background and everyone is nice the entไire time.

The Bear’s fake video game has guns, too

This is a game, though, and one that seems to be aiming at greatness, so guns naturally show up at some point. I’m still only halfway into season 3 of the show, but I risk saying that the part of the game where Chicagoan Dogs break into the kitchen and you have to shoot them to death is the game just taking some artistic liberty.

You thought I was kidding, didn’t you? Still, don’t get fooled into thinking the game is only about killing dogs. There are many other hilarious references to the show that I won’t spoil but, all in all, the most surreal part remains how everyone is just so goddamn nice and reassuring the entire time.

While I didn’t like the idea of killing dogs even before The Last Of Us Part 2 taught me that it was wrong, I’d really like to get a chance to play The Bear on No Rush mode. That’s not even because of my love for the show and the art of cooking in general — it’s because this looks like a version of Overcooked that I’d actually enjoy playing.

You can’t play The Bear on any platform, but you can watch 𒉰it on FX and Hulu.
