About the game
A new edition of the party word association game "Der HeidelBÄR" from Heidelberger Spieleverlag. "Der HeidelBÄR" is a party game where everybody uses word association to describe a word with a per, peer, bear in it. The word is replaced with a bear and you need to describe it for the others with only six words. but the first two words are always "This bear..." or "My bear...". So you actually only have four words and you are not allowed to use words which are in the word you have to guess. In this version words are used of which parts sound like the names of animals of the forest.
