OozeBear is like nothing else out there when it comes to doing improv online. Unlike video conferencing and the like, it's purpose-built for the task, and it shows. It's easy to navigate, there's a ton of features for facilitating different playstyles, and the creator has been very responsive and open to new ideas. Weekly jams are a blast -- it's great practice and I've met so many cool people.

Oozebear is a fantastic, fun and easy platform for online improv!

Before OozeBear, it had been very challenging for me to be an active part of an improv community because there isn't any improv group in my city or in any nearby city. After I discovered Oozebear, all of a sudden there was this platform I could simply log into to be a part of a wholesome group of people and do improv with them. It's been great. The founder is regularly updating and refining the software we use, the sessions are fun and we get to do a lot, the people are lovely to jam with, and there's a culture of being supportive and appreciative of each other.

There are a lot of cool ways to interact with drawings and pictures which can be used for unique improv games. It's fun to drop in and improv with people from different countries. It's cool that there are tools built specifically for improvisers.

I honestly can't recommend Oozebear enough - it allows me to improv with people from all over the world in an easy, clear audio environment. In these times especially, it's a great outlet to keep up with, and expand on, my improv knowledge. It's constantly being updated with new features and great ideas. Lately, my favourite update has been the inclusion of images to prompt scenes!I've been able to interact with amazing people I would never have gotten the chance to meet if it wasn't for this platform.

Playing on Oozebear has been a great way to keep up my improv chops during this quarantine. The audio-only format allows players to take different kinds of risks...and it has been so much fun! Additional bonus: it has been great being able to meet and play games with players from all over the country. Thanks, Oozebear!
