The core gameplay of Poor Bunny is easy to understand, making it accessible for players of all ages. You control the bunny’s movement and guide it around the map to grab carrots that appear in random locations. While doing so, you must constantly avoid hazards such as spikes, crushing blocks, and falling traps. These dangers appear with little warning, meaning hesitation often leads to instant death.

The controls are simple, but the timing required to survive is precise. Each second in the game feels intense because there is never a completely safe spot. As you collect more carrots, the game becomes faster and more chaotic, pushing your reaction speed and decision-making skills to the limit. There are no upgrades or power-ups to rely on—success depends purely on player skill.
