First introduced in the 1980s, American Greetings' themed teddy bear toys get their own side-scrolling platform adventure in Care Bears: Care Quest. In all, the game features a dozen popular Care Bear characters: Friend Bear, Funshine Bear, Love-a-lot Bear, Cheer Bear, Champ Bear, Bedtime Bear, Grumpy Bear, Laugh-a-lot Bear, Tenderheart Bear, Share Bear, Good Luck Bear, and Wish Bear. Each Care Bear is playable in its own level. Difficulty settings can be adjusted, and the game features graphic tutorials that require no reading, well suited for even the youngest handheld gamers.
