The Bunny Graveyard is an episodic horror-adventure game developed by Pichon Games. In this haunting adventure, players follow a bunny named Skye as she seeks to uncover the disturbing truth behind her existence and explore deeper into the surreal and unsettling pixelated world inspired by retro handheld consoles. 

As Skye awakens in a strange land of corrupted memories and decaying dreams, players are invited to join her—all while enjoying hours of gameplay through exploration, puzzles, and mini-games. In a world where nothing is what it seems, The Bunny Graveyard looks to captivate players with its creepy atmosphere and thought-provoking narrative.

A pixelated horror tale to die for

At the beginning of The Bunny Graveyard, the player takes on the role of a cursor searching for Skye—a bunny in the quest to unravel the mystery of her past. Together, they can explore the creepy world, meet peculiar characters, play mini-games like fishing and gardening, escape dangerous situations, make impactful choices, watch animated cutscenes, and find collectibles to piece together the unsettling story.

The episodic storytelling is a standout feature of the game as it is what propels the mystery-driven plot. It is furthered by the action-packed and creepy animated cutscenes and unlocked collectibles that reveal pieces of the hidden story. For players interested in unsettling tales with layers of secrets to unravel, the engaging narrative at the heart of this horror adventure should prove thoroughly compelling.

Although the pixel art style and episodic storytelling of the game are appealing, the gameplay itself seems rather repetitive and lacking in depth. The minigames quickly become tedious since they are recycled throughout the episodes. That said, players who focus more on the mystery and horror elements of the story may be able to overlook the repetitive gameplay by opting out of trying to complete all minigames and collectibles.

A retro game worth exploring

The Bunny Graveyard provides an unsettling experience through its art style and storyline. By progressing through the episodes at a steady pace, players stay immersed in the mystery of Skye’s existence. While the minigames are repetitive, the engaging narrative and episodic storytelling are compelling enough to outweigh the gameplay’s lack of depth. For players seeking a creepy retro adventure with a thought-provoking story, this looks to be a promising choice.
