It's been close to a year, but finally Gionatan Iasio has brought us another installment in his excellent Warbears games, Warbears: Mission 2. The point-and-click puzzle games are similar to Rob Allen's Hapland series but with a distinctly unique flavor. You control four bears on a training mission to infiltrate a house set with paintball-loaded dummies. By clicking on a bear you bring up a context-sensitive menu of actions you can perform. The order in which you do things is the key to completing the mission, and one wrong step puts you in a goo-splattered dead end.
Warbears is all about playing, getting stuck, then starting all over again. There is no warning to tell you when you're about to do something stupid, so you may find yourself (as I did) restarting after a full half hour of play. Fortunately Iasio's beautiful animations and music gives the game a very comfortable mood, so you won't get frustrated. Mission 2 is much more polished than the first game with better sound and visuals and more streamlined gameplay.
For puzzle strategists and curious onlookers alike, this game provides enough of a challenge to tickle the grey matter without overwhelming you at any time. From the opening title to the four eventual endings, Warbears: Mission 2 is a well deserved sequel and a very enjoyable game. Click.
Be sure to check out Gionatan's original Warbears as well.
Thanks to Lily and video_game_freak for giving us the heads-up!
Warbears: Mission 2 walkthrough now available!
Comments (may contain spoilers)
Oh fantastic, you guys have made my day for two days in a row.
Also mission 3 is there..
I've been waiting for the sequel for what feels like ages. YAY!

WTH?
Leandro, Mission 3 is not there yet but coming soon. Or at least it is not published at www.warbears.com. But if you happen to know that it is out there somewhere else then please let us know :)
I can't get into the house without causing a mission failure either.... Could anyone give me a hint to get inside without the Chief complaining about Steve's laziness?
Ah, i figured it out! No worries.
Xadrian, Marc, Remember mission 1? You have to do things in a certain order to make them right. If Lucas fail to convince Steve, then maybe that conversation has to be done in some later stage.
And remember, the mission fails also if you kill innocent casualties ;)
I found this game on Lazylaces yesterday, so I've been going back and forth between those forums and the actual Warbears forums. This is one of those games that gets really frustrating because you want to see what happens for the "good" ending, but nothing you can think of will get it. Here's some hints as to what I've got so far.

Hopefully this helps a bit. I can get a rank of A, and see endings 2 and 3, but that's it. If anyone gets a better ending, I'm kinda stuck.
WHAY! I did it without any help! I got ending 2, 1100 points and i didn't kill any innocent casulties!
Good sequel, and utterly random!
p.s. what was with that random bloke who came on halfway through the game, hit a tree, then left?
how do u do the switches, im confused
Yeah, not a fan of stuff I have to start over if I fail. Starting from the last point, maybe, but if I get 20 mins into it and miss a damn squirrel...
Never played 1, almost glad. It's cute, though.
Alright, a sequel! There goes my afternoon.
How do you get the glass dome to fall on Steve? I did it once and now I forgot!

I, too, am stuck with the darn switches!
Guys, I'm Gionatan Iasio.
Just wanted to say thanks for playing.
Hey Jay, thanks for the review ;)
Bruce,

Xandrian, you are absolutely right. It is frustrating to start all over again if you fail in some stage. I usually started with the tree cutting, which is quite damn hard, since you have to

I managed to get B rank, but only after I cheated by reading some very clear hints at Lazylaces. I have to say that the 'thing' was really not so obvious:

rite what do you do when you get the fuse, coz i keep tryin to go up the rope but it keeps saying i have something else to do here
Kenai, I give a hint:

im so stuck, go the fuse out etc... put it in the circuit opened the door but now dnt know wqat to do, please help
I have Lucas in the house, but I'm having trouble getting the focus back outside of the house so I can control the other bears... I did it once but I'm not sure how. Anybody else having trouble with this?
theres a little white shadow where the bears are, hover your mouse over that
This is the sequel to the game that led me to this site! -HAPPY-
I googled WarBears walkthrough and bam. Here I am today.
Ok,
I got this part to work but I can't remember how???????
How do you get agent Kla past the window without getting shot with the green goup?
Yeah, I loved the original Warbears and liked this, but it is getting too much to have to start completely over again when you make a mistake. Maybe I'm just impatient but it spoilt my enjoyment of this instalment and ultimately stopped me playing.
It would be nice if the games gave you a save state, where anytime during your mission you could use it to save and restart from, and of course, since it doesn't guarantee you started off right you still might need to start over from the beginning but it would help you avoid having to start all the way over in certain cases.
Some type of system I think would make this more accessable to a broader audience. Since this game requires some severe patience.
But it is cute and fun :3 regardless
I've gotten endings 2 and 3, but even if i get the "thing" then it still says i got ending 2 or 3... help?
i also heard something about an ending including the squirrel...
nice game, but not having a save feature RUINS the playability
Beebly:
Hint:

You need to somehow block the target's (line of sight)
Solution:

Cut down the tree
Kenai:

Make lucas go through the open basement door. He then has to do something in that room. Once done leave the room.
What lucas must do before he can leave the basement:

Replace the original fuse, after doing the above.
Hope that helps people!
How come Ryoh keeps getting shot? The evil siren thing ALWAYS comes up and is bugging me- and do you have to pull up the clothesline?
someone help me
Thx for the mention Jay!
This game owns all. i got it beat with 1700 points.... and with endings 2 and 3. I cant figure out how to get the "item"...
And also, Ioji said that he should be releasing a new warbears game about every 2 months now.
what does lucas have to do in the basement? i got the fuse but he won't go up!
I'm stuck at 44%, I have him out of the glass, but the front door is locked and I can't get anyone to do anything.
I beat it but only with a c rank.
Whats with the penguins.
Walkthrough (for ending 2 of 4)
I tried this twice, I'm sorry for any mistakes but this is the first time I try to write a walkthrough.

Anyone knows what to do with the mobile? I tried switching it off once, but it didn't change anything.
And how do you get to the other endings?
Thanks for the spoiler Irene. But I did get a little stuck. After Steve is saved, he tries to open the door but it's locked. I had to give back the fuse or Lucus wouldn't leave so I'm not sure how to keep the door open.
What am I missing?
Oh. My. Goodness.
I'm on my sister's laptop, with not a lot of CPU power, so the fps was quite low. I got to the part where I have to shoot with Steve, but it actually took me about 10 mins to do it. Even on low quality.
So...I got to the computer with Kla and

Well, I can't see one anywhere else, so I'm going to post a COMPLETE, ALL 4 ENDINGS WALKITHROUGH of Warbears 2. You'd better appreciate this :).

Please comment, MANAX
Oks, I tried again, on a better computer, and got a C. I don't understand how you can do other things and get different endings :S
Heh, i decided to go through the credits, and i got a mention in it! It says... "Thank you all who stayed at the dead forums of ioji.it" and then the thing after that says a list of names, with mine in there... My username on warbears.com is booman101, look for it in the creds :D
@Beebly:

Hurray!!!!
warbears 2.....this one is just as fun!
agh! i nearly ended it but he didnt tie the rope on! grrr!
im gonna try again
I cant figure out why, but i only got 57% it's a B.
i know i didn't do the box puzzle, i shot it, or throw the rock at the guy, but other than that...
I got the item, but i couldn't get the code on the box :(
YAY! i figured out the puzzle, 61% ending 1 0f 4 i accomplished it!
I got Rank A and ending 2, i think this is good





You can get another bonus if

How to get different endings:










Heh.. mixed feelings about this one.
I like the humour, I like the setting, the graphics/sounds are nice and all in all it looks and feels nice. Especially at first.
But the game is simple trial-and-error. No, scratch that, the game is COMPLEX trial-and-error. There is no clear path to take, no clear indication whether the option you choose is right or wrong and every mistake forces you to start over from scratch. Also, the game fails to give you feedback whether you have already made an uncorrectable mistake early on, which can make the game quite a frustrating experience. In Hapland the whole thing was at least quick and fluid, here you have to hear (read) the same conversations and endure the same longish animations again and again.
The whole thing gets a thumbs down from me unfortunately, but I cannot say there is no potential in this thing. In this form, this is a game that is perhaps more enjoyable to play with a walktrough then trying to puzzle it out on your own.
I thought that was great, but incredibly time consuming...
thanks everyone for your spoilers I read every one, how sad am I!?
Random but isn't Mordecia like the big tiger laguz in Fire Emblem, not many here would understand its just someones name ctrl + F then type it in, it'll be your first result!
DO NOT READ MY SPOILER!

Warbears Mission 2 Solution and Walktrhough

I notice some people are still asking questions and not knowing how to do things, as well as posting partial walkthroughs, but this is unnecessary, as I posted a complete walkthrough a few comments up, the only new information I've encountered is that you can get extra points if you make ryoh chop the tree before the meter begins to go back down. (credit to ???) Be advised I will be working on WB this weekend. -MANAX
I got the item, but I got ending number 3 for some reason.
For an amusing ending, fail the mission as horribly as you can.
how do i solve the puzzle in the metal box
confused on war bears 1
solution

to get the best ending,

I dunno if this is me being a no0b, but i can't seem to get this right! Every time i try to get on the roof w/ the squirrl, the laser thing comes up and the result of that is i die. And every time i try to deactivate the laser, i'm too late and i fail the mission. Darn. So can someone tell me what order to do this in?
OK. Sorry, i panicked...i found one posted by someone named "Ryho" (and thanks for posting it...)
This is kind of embarrassing, but is Kla male or female? I'd originally thought Kla was a girl, but I thought I saw a reference of "he" once. (Besides, aren't all elite action squads supposed to have at least one woman in them?)
Thx Everybody
The second game was okay, but here's a HUGE secret about it:

i need help on the old man in the park here
the best ending is

help if i get in house with lucas then the commander says you had to do something about steve what should i do?
I'm in the part when you last give back the fuse to Lucas. But why doesn't Kla give back the fuse? He says "Hummm" instead.
I am also at the part when you give the fuse back to Lucas. Kla wont give it back, just says "Humm" Man this is making me mad...
Can anyone give me a walkthrough?
I love the game, but having to restart from the beginning continuously really gets on my nerves. I got up to the part where Kla is using the computer and pushed the MP3 button to see what would happen. Kla died and I had to restart. :(
A saving system like Harukio suggested would be nice. Something with only one slot maybe?
im stuck at 14% help?
I've long wished that there was a save function in the Hapland games, given how many of the puzzles in that series depend on split-second precise timing and you don't get a second chance, but the saving grace there was that the Hapland games are so phrenetic and fast-paced that it doesn't usually take too terribly long to get back to where you were should you need to start over. The Warbears games are much slower-paced, and so take much longer to get back to where you were.
The upside, I guess, is that there are fewer puzzles in the Warbears games that depend on precise timing, so at least you aren't liable to keep making the same mistake once you know where the mistake is. However, the Warbears games are so much longer than the Hapland games, with so many more puzzles that have to be solved in the right order, and it takes forever for the chief to give you a cryptic hint what to do.
In spite of this, the first game was really fun, and I actually managed to beat it without a walkthrough (though it was tempting), after several hours of trying. This game was fun enough, but the whole malarky with Steve at the start is really off-putting.



Not denying for a moment that the game is well made and very funny. But put a save feature next time.
Just out of curiosity, has anyone been able to get 100% completion? I'm up to 90%, but I don't know what I need to get that last bit. I've done all 4 endings, done as many of the "mistakes" as I can think of, and even wasted my time to finish the "most complete" ending with 2000 points in a single attempt (meaning I got perfects on every puzzle/target, got both reflex points, and got the points for being nice to steve).
How do you get 100%?!
You should try again with mirror mode on ^^ !
Okay, I've encountered a new hitch:

omg where's the walkthrough????? i cant do it... geez wiz will someone at least be kind enough to put the spoiler/walkthrough here?!?!!?...
Boy, those are a lot of endings. . . love this version, easier for me to shoot at things that aren't moving--that tunnel scene in the last one killed my score to no end. I only found the penguin ending, and my nerves are shot. I'll try later when I've gotten the moisture back in my eyes.
Dee. ^_^

I've done my best. Enjoy, and cheat responsibly.





























Phew, there! The walkthrough that you've all been begging for! I'm really glad that others made some before me, or I woulda been stumped somewhere along the line. Credits to Alex, Ryho (were you trying for Ryoh the ninja polar bear and made a typo?), MANAX, and Irene for making some, but I got too confused by the large amount of text. Still was very helpfull though.
I feel as if theres WB1, and then the level amps, so its level 2, level 3... etc. The recent "adventure" one was incredibly easy. WB3 was... ugh! crazy hard. Luckily, there were checkpoint sorta thins. For people trying to pass the fuse, and Kla is saying, "Hmm..." - i have no idea what you're talking about. And theres 2 times where you need to give the fuse back to Lucas - which time?: the 1st time or the 2nd time?
I FOUND THE REAL SECRET ID ITEM tell me it you want it
man i cant do the puzzle! its way too confusing! can someone plz help me?
oh noo! i.........FORGOT THE ROCK. i threw it to test out the shooting goo, but you cant get another rock. poop
if kla says hmmm, it means you need to open the front door.
if you think about it, they NEED TO GET IN THE HOUSE!!!
WTF?! The walkthrough doesn't make sense. You said to move to the left twice for Lucas to be shot at, and then he will "flee". What flee? He doesn't flee anywhere, he gets shot at with the goop and I am unable to use him any longer and then the chief says I failed the mission!
WTF?!?!
i cant see the fuse box!
Steve's cell rings an indiana jones sone after Ryoh gets the rope. supposed to be humorous i guess
Piko,
