Amber wakes from nightmares to find her brother Flint missing in a way that feels wrong rather than ordinary. Her only investigative resource is Ted E. Bear—a worn-out retired detective who operates out of a desk in Amber's room and would strongly prefer not to be working cases again. Together they begin moving through Paper City's residents and suspects while tracking a stranger in red who has been setting fires around the city and asking specific questions about Amber. Bear With Me is a noir-styled point-and-click adventure set in a world made entirely of paper.
