Killer Bunnies (Full name: Killer Bunnies and the Quest for the Magic Carrot) is a card game currently released and marketed by Playroom Entertainment. It is a humorous game, with the very name "Killer Bunnies" probably inspired by the blood-thirsty rabbit in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The general premise of the game is trying to get carrots, whether by stealing them or buying them or other ways entirely. At the end of the game (once all Carrots have been taken by players), a small deck of cards with pictures on them corresponding to the carrots is turned over. The carrot at the bottom of the small deck of cards is proclaimed the "Magic Carrot", and whoever has the Magic Carrot wins. However, you must have at least one "Bunny" card to win. Expansion packs are regularly released, which must be bought in a certain order for them to work with your deck. This order is:

Other Projects

The creators of Killer Bunnies have shown interests in expanding the Killer Bunnies product lineup. Already, shirts are sold with pictures of the comic bunnies on them. The creators have also said that Killer Bunnies will be a trilogy of games. Along with the already released Killer Bunnies and the Quest for the Magic Carrot, there will be Killer Bunnies and the Journey to Jupiter, which will be played using a combination of cards and a board, and then Killer Bunnies and the New Orleans Odyssey, which is still very secretive. Recently, a version of Killer Bunnies for younger audiences called "Kinder Bunnies" has been announced for release sometime in 2005. It will apparently feature non-lethal game play (as opposed to the normal version of Killer Bunnies, where bunnies die regularly) and will be compatible to some extent with the normal Killer Bunnies game. Also, it has been announced that in Spring 2005 a Killer Bunnies 16 month calendar will be released.
