Super Bear Adventure Emotes: Emote Wheel, Group and Infection Guide

Emotes turned Super Bear Adventure from a solo platformer into a social game. They arrived with multiplayer and have grown with almost every update since.

This guide is based on Earthkwak Games' official changelog, which lists each emote feature with its version and date.

How the Emote Wheel Works

Version 12.0.0 added the emote wheel, which lets you select and play an emote when your bear is on the ground. Version 12.1.0 added emote categories for faster navigation in the wheel and tooltips that explain the more complex emotes.

Emotes are unlocked by opening chests, but some are unlocked by default. Version 12.0.4 fixed some emotes being incorrectly unlocked on new saves.

Interactive Emotes: Flags, Balls and Props

Some emotes do more than animate your bear. The 12.0.0 changelog lists interactive emotes that spawn flags, soccer balls and easter eggs, or transform you into a prop.

• Soccer goal: since 12.1.0, the goals count the score and no longer disappear when a goal is scored.
• Prop: 12.1.2 added the ability to bounce on NPCs and jump pads while disguised with the prop hunt emote. Since 13.0.7, birds are no longer scared of a player disguised as a prop.
• Walk emotes: 13.0.4 fixed animation issues with the zombie and robot walk emotes.

Group Emotes: Hug, High Five and Rock-Paper-Scissors

Version 12.1.0 added group emotes for multiplayer: hug, high five and rock-paper-scissors. They need another player nearby, so they work best in a multiplayer party of up to four players.

Infection Tag and the Timer Emote

• Infection emotes start a chase tag mode: you can attack other players to give them the infection.
• New gamerules added in 12.1.0 control how infection emotes behave in a party.
• The timer emote starts a personal timer, handy for challenges and races with friends.

Emotes in the Multiplayer Lobby

Since 12.1.0 you can play emotes in the multiplayer lobby while waiting for friends. Multiplayer itself arrived in 12.0.0, supports up to four players and is cross-platform between Android, iOS and Switch. The Hive, the Arcade World and Tristopio's missions were not available in multiplayer at launch.
