In case you are wondering, throughout the creation process I was guided by a talking Teddy named Bearemy. If you think that pun is funny, then the game's humor will strike a chord with you. Everyone else is left to endure such awful punnery as "furbulous," "bearific" and "100% pawesome." (My word processor is screaming in terror right now.)

Grab a seat when the music stops by tapping a chair. That's it. Controls in this one are bad, though that doesn't stop it from being a cakewalk. Choose from 8 different characters : Dimple Teddy, Sassy Kitty, Mocha Bunny, Marvelous Monkey, Velvet Teddy, Friendly Frog, Playful Puppy, Pink Poodle The player can also access the multiplayer mode via the attic.

Finally I got to name it. I named it Terry: because of all the gender-confusion, it's best to keep my options open. So I was finally given a birth certificate that proves I am the guardian of this genderless lump of fluff, and the real fun began. Or maybe I should say that's where the fun ended. After finishing your bear, the game basically stops. It prompts for a house to be painted, and once that's done it turns into some kind of button-collecting exercise. These buttons buy stuff like sex change operations—uh I mean clothes—should you strive to leave your gender again. To earn these buttons you must play awful mini-games which I will also list as thus: Build-A-Bear Workshop is a simulation video game for the Nintendo DS based on the retailer of the same name.

Make your own furry friend using the stylus and microphone in all of the Build-A-Bear Workshop stations including Choose Me, Stuff Me, Fluff Me and Name Me I settled on Sound #6. Next I had to ensure how "huggable" my bear friend would be by stuffing him. I'm starting to get a cavity here from this saccharine exercise. OK, I touched the foot pedal to stuff the bear. Then I had to make a wish. This is starting to get a little peculiar. To activate this "wish," I had to rub hearts on the screen and whisper a secret into the DS. I told my bear that his citizenship and loyalties to the U.S. were still in question. He responded with, "I love you." Typical furry immigrant—appeal to the heartstrings. Next was stitching him up: zigzag the stylus through the holes, and that's that. Then I had to "fluff" him. US decency laws prohibit me from describing this part in detail, but it involves a hot, steamy shower and questionable electronic devices. It's better left unsaid.

(I forget what was in that cup.) Using a variety of clothes and body parts, your teddy bear can become whomever you want. For example, a cape and a funky hairstyle will turn your friend into a superhero. What is more, with a hat and a cape, a plain-looking teddy bear can become a witch.
