Poor Bunny — Play Free Online

Poor Bunny is a small arcade game about hopping. You start on a little platform with other platforms floating around it, carrots appear across the screen, and your job is to jump from platform to platform and collect as many as you can before the traps close in. There is no level map and no story to get through. It is one run at a time, and the score is simply how many carrots you banked.

The rule that shapes everything is that a single hit ends the run. That makes sessions short, usually a minute or two, and it makes each decision matter. Golden carrots are worth three regular ones but vanish after a few seconds, and grabbing one often sends the bunny toward traps that are already moving. Greed is the whole game.

If you came to Doodle Jump for the tension of timing a jump onto the next platform, this is a close cousin. The difference is that you are not climbing forever. You stay on one screen and read the traps instead.

How to play

Move with the arrow keys or WASD, and use the mouse to aim and to select menu options. On a phone or tablet you tap and swipe instead, so no keyboard is needed. Press Play, pick your start, and the first carrots show up straight away.

A round runs like this: look at where the next carrot is, pick the platform that gets you there, jump, and look again before you land. Your score is the carrots you collected when you get hit.

Tips

• Check where the traps are heading before you commit to a jump. They move, so a safe landing spot can become a bad one while you are in the air.
• Treat golden carrots as a gamble. When traps are crowding the platform you need, skip it. Three carrots do not make up for ending the run early.
• Take the nearby carrot rather than the far one when the screen is busy. A steady count beats one risky grab.
• Keep an easy platform in mind as an escape route, and don't plan every jump around the carrot alone.

Poor Bunny suits a quick break: it runs in the browser with nothing to install, and a run takes a minute or two. It works with a keyboard and mouse, or with touch on a phone.
