Meet Bamse
Bamse is a classic Swedish cartoon character who made his debut in 1966 in "Bamse – Världens starkaste björn" (Bamse – The World's Strongest Bear). Created by Rune Andréasson, the bear first appeared in animated shorts and comic strips before getting his own magazine in 1973.
Over the years, the series has touched upon family values, social themes, and important ideas like gender equality and inclusion. Bamse's Adventure: The Wand Mystery was originally released in Sweden as Bamses Äventyr – Trollstavsmysteriet.
You can download the game from the Google Play Store.
