Gameplay

*The Fluffiest of All Kings is on a mission!*

Amazingly, King Rabbit gets right to the point as soon as it’s downloaded. You are the King of the rabbits, and someone decided to trap your Queen! It’s up to you to move King Rabbit safely to his goal and help rescue the Queen!

Now that we got all that out of the way, this app is one of the most satisfying puzzlers you will play on your phone! After getting the hang of what’s going on in the game, the main menu opens the door to the other gaming modes and a chance to make your own level!

Graphics

*Bombs, Saws, and even fast-moving boxes will come for the King!*

I’ve always been a fan of pixel art and King Rabbit is no exception! Everything is detailed down to the death of our favorite King. From the traps and hidden blocks, it’s hard to miss anything graphic-wise when playing. Which is good, because the difficulty ramps up with each level completed! Don’t get caught gazing into the flowers too long!

Music

*There are so many chapters to this game and just as many zones!*

The soundtrack for King Rabbit is soothing and fits the gameplay. I feel as though you can play this game without the music, as there are not many sound clues, but it doesn’t hurt to leave it on. Most of the action is based on the current puzzle level. It’s always good to immerse yourself in any game, so throw some headphones in and enjoy!

Controls

*Each level can be replayed to help achieve casual perfection!*

There’s not much to the controls here. Just swipe in the direction you want to move, and the King Rabbit does the rest. The controls are pretty responsive as well, which is a bonus. I never felt I was in a situation where King Rabbit didn’t move where I wanted him to. The navigation of menus was a breeze as well! The menus inside the game are pretty expansive, but I don’t count this as a bad thing because it just speaks the volume of nameplate there is!

In-app Purchases

Now King Rabbit does come with a few purchases, but nothing needed to progress. Most of the in-game currency is diamonds. These can be collected by watching a few ads or during the completion of puzzles! You can trade in these diamonds to graphically enhance the King Rabbit. Some of the items are pretty intense!

Hints can also be purchased at a price. Hints will help solve some of the harder puzzles when stuck. I could see myself purchasing some of these items, but doesn’t seem to be a need or want starting.

The Verdict

*Take on the ultimate challenge and build your own level!*

Finally, if you are stuck somewhere or waiting for transportation, this is the casual app for you! King Rabbit is brief and challenging, and when you are at home, you can create your puzzles for other people to try to and master! Like puzzlers like this one?

Happy Gaming!
