The point-and-click adventure genre has been a longstanding bastion of quality in video gaming. Titles like Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island, and The Dig are ubiquitous to everyone that considers themselves a gamer, formative experiences for many, and archaic, if important, milestones in history for the rest. The amusingly ancient technique of "picking everything up and rubbing it on everything else" style of puzzle solution has always lingered like a dark cloud over more recent adventure games, and as more advanced, streamlined games continue to come out, interest in the storied genre has flickered to a mere candle in the dark.
It's unfortunate, then, that a game as incredibly, meticulously crafted as The Night of the Rabbit goes unnoticed, as it solves nearly every problem inherent in the genre.
PJ: "Have you ever dreamt of having magical powers? Or your imagination take you beyond the four drawing-and-poster-covered walls and into mystical worlds from within your head? Only he who once was a child himself, even if the time long past, would believe in the story of 12-years-old Jerry. Would you laugh out loud, or rather smile, hearing that the greatest dream of little Jeremiah Hazelnut was to become a magician - and that it actually came true?"
