Bears Can’t Drift!? will not offer a great single player experience. It is clearly designed for multiplayer, which is no bad thing. But the lack of an online option and a reliance on local multiplayer will affect the longevity of an otherwise enjoyable title. It isn’t brimming with originality and has its fair share of problems, but it is beautifully designed, full of character with a simple gameplay style that makes it easy to just pick up and play.

The game is a decent racer and is meant to be played locally with friends. It won’t take long to complete all the game has to offer, so your mileage with the game really depends on how much you play with friends. Track design is confusing and isn’t very straight forward, but after some trial and error, you’ll be on the right path. The next time some friends come over and we are looking for something to play, I may bust out the battle mode for some local competitive play. A copy of this game was provided by the publisher for review purposes.

Bears Can't Drift is a cute game that would have been very enjoyable if it had more straightforward tracks and far less bugs. As it is, there's some fun to be had but far too much frustration is involved.

Bears Can't Drift!? is not a bad game. It is actually quite interesting, mostly due to how bizarre the design choices are, which give it a weird mystery box quality to it. It engages curiosity and invites to keep on playing and see how deep the bear hole goes. While the hole is shallow, it is a compelling hole that looks cute and has up to four-player split-screen. Bears Can't Drift!?'s core game is just really boring at the end of the day, and as it turns out, nobody cares if bears can drift.

Bears Can’t Drift!? doesn’t have many things in its favor, but it’s not the worst racing game I’ve played this generation. At the very least, it does feature good controls. I don’t exactly see why you would decide to buy it for your Xbox One besides looking for a kid-friendly kart racer not named Race With Ryan. Those bears sure know how to drift, but they’re not really good at anything else besides that.

There’s clearly a lot of passion and work put into this, and it’s charming and upbeat, with retro influences clear on its sleeves. However, it simply needs so much more polish that I cannot currently recommend a purchase to anyone. When things start to become a serious drag to continue playing, you know something is up.
