About The Night of the Rabbit
About this game
Lose yourself in a tale of magic and wonder, where anything is possible and where nothing is quite as it seems: join young Jerry and follow a peculiar white rabbit to the wondrous realm of Mousewood, a land where critters can speak and where mystery abounds.
It is here that Jerry’s dream of being a magician comes true, though a haunting, sinister force casts a long shadow over the forest. Someone offers the residents of Mousewood a deal of their lifetime - tickets to the greatest magic show that the world has ever seen. But the price is steep, as they'll have to stake their most precious possessions and also their lives.
As the shadows grow deeper, the residents of Mousewood have only Jerry to turn to. On an adventure full of laughter and tears, joy and fear, the young boy will face the ultimate trial, leaving behind the world he once knew, and his childhood, too, will become a thing of the past.

The King of the Sofa

I played this game on an Acer Nitro V 15 gaming laptop.
Visually, the game looked good on high settings in Full HD. No complaints there — it uses a nice art style that’s pretty standard for point‑and‑click games. The game also seems to have a good sense of humor, and the story is fun to unravel.
I didn’t finish the game; after about four hours I’d had enough. The puzzles get noticeably harder, and the hint system I unlocked isn’t very helpful.
So I’ll probably need a walkthrough soon, and at that point the fun disappears for me.
However, if you’re a true point‑and‑click fan, this is definitely a game you should play.
As far as I know, it often goes on sale on Steam.
Everything works well, the gameplay is solid, and I didn’t encounter a single crash or bug.
I only had some issues with the audio. Sometimes there are long pauses in conversations, and certain lines can be repeated to the point of annoyance. There’s one conversation in particular that always ends the same way — and it’s not just a simple goodbye, it’s a whole speech.
So yes, it has its downsides in my opinion, especially the difficulty spike and a hint system that doesn’t really help. That’s a shame, but it’s also pretty typical for point‑and‑click games. I haven’t needed a walkthrough yet, but if I keep playing, I think I’ll eventually have to use one.
In the end, it’s definitely worth playing

To be honest, point and click games have never really been my cup of tea, even "Ankh", a game I loved as a child, is rather a chore to replay now. "The night of the rabbit" was recommended to me and the key was gifted to me by a friend and I thought I'd give it a try.
While the game looks lovely, it wasn't able to really interest me. I played though most of chapter one, I think, but after roughly 30 minutes (that felt a whole lot longer) I quit and haven't been able to find motivation to continue. I probably will at some point as I hate abandoning games but it will be with a guide as I just don't want to spent extra time of trying to figure stuff out myself.
I don't doubt that this is a nice game for people who like this type of game (as I said it was warmly recommended to me by someone) but it's just not for me.
