The Night of the Rabbit
Platform: Mac, Windows
Do you remember the picture books of your childhood? The cozy, sun-dappled worlds encountered in the pages of A. A. Milne and Beatrix Potter were a soothing antidote to the frequent cruelty and unfairness of daily life. The Night of the Rabbit, an indie point-and-click adventure by Daedalic Entertainment, is the digital equivalent of those picture books: visually and aurally lush, with a cast of charming animal characters and a human boy as the plucky protagonist. It's an engaging companion for an evening's play but unfortunately it can also be a little too long-winded for its own good.
Jeremiah Hazelnut is a cheerful young lad who heads out one morning determined to make the most of the two days of summer he has left. He certainly finds adventure in the form of a strangely alive letter that bounds out of his mailbox. Upon following the instructions within he summons an old magician's trunk—and a six foot tall talking rabbit in a purple frock coat called the Marquis de Hoto.
The rabbit is a magician and a treewalker, able to transport himself between worlds. He is looking for an apprentice and Jerry, an aspiring magician himself and possessor of a mysterious magical coin, is his choice. To begin his training the Marquis takes Jerry back to Mousewood, an enchanting realm where hedgehogs repair boats and a dainty mouse on roller skates named Anja runs the local café. As Jerry, you will start small, solving puzzles and combining inventory items to perform errands for the Mousewood folk. But after a lengthy series of quests you will gain the magical knowledge necessary to combat the evil that threatens to unravel this idyllic world...
The Night of the Rabbit is a point-and-click adventure in the traditional style, which means there are loads of puzzles to solve in between all the dialogue. Talking, and picking up and using items are all accomplished with a single click of the mouse, and scrolling the mouse wheel is all it takes to open your inventory. Holding down the wheel activates Jerry's magic sight, highlighting all the clickable spots on the screen and occasionally turning up a hidden wood sprite or elf. The territory you cover is quite large and a easily-accessible game map is not available, so progress can get tedious at times and will require plenty of trial and error. Luckily the puzzles are mostly sensible, and the solutions never get as bizarre as they were in the good old days of Sierra and LucasArts.
Analysis: Oh, how gorgeous this game is. We wouldn't be surprised to learn that Daedalic Entertainment had holed up in the children's section of the library prior to making this game as the scenery evokes happy memories of the warm, enveloping forests drawn by Arnold Lobel or E.H. Shepard. In screenshots it looks good but in motion it positively blooms, as dandelion seeds waft by on the breeze and fireflies dance in the soft lantern glow at the Hare family's birthday party. It's a vision of childhood as it might exist in the Western collective unconsicous: safe, comfortable, warm, and a little bit magical. The universally excellent voice acting just adds to the charm.
If only the script were up to the high standards set by the art. Make no mistake, the dialogue is witty and written with a novelist's skill. The pacing, however, is off. Seriously off. The first several hours of the game are ostensibly Jerry's trial period in which he proves himself worthy of magic study, but it seemed to us more like a series of poorly-signposted fetch quests.
The game in general suffers from this lack of direction. Why are you here? What's the point? Who are these strange masked creatures? Where's the big bad guy? A little mystery is good storytelling but these questions are left unanswered for far too long. If you're not yelling, "GET ON WITH IT!" after five hours of charming and funny but pointless dialogue with your animal friends you are made of sterner stuff than we are. The game's initial refusal to open up can get frustrating, but the story gets more involving as Jerry's magical skills grow and the radiant setting and soundtrack will be enough to carry many through the dozy bits.
German game studio Daedalic Entertainment has been sustaining the genre of story-driven point-and-click for years now with games like A New Beginning and Edna & Harvey: The Breakout, and The Night of the Rabbit is a typically well-produced addition to their resumé. Other adventure games may be less unwieldy but few are endowed with this much atmosphere. While its poor pacing frequently tried our patience, The Night of the Rabbit is an enchanting trip down the rabbit hole we're glad we took.

Then add black, in turn, the kind you should be loath burn.
Black and white as they combine, the inside of your vessel line.
Then three more things: tree skin, tree fruit, and lastly, but not least, a root.
At the crossroads, draw a circle with the powder mix obtained, put the vessel in the center of the powder ring thus gained.
Set the circle - bang! - on fire, the carrot flame leaps high and higher, and I will swallow it in haste to enjoy the lovely taste."

Go back to the Forest Crossroads.
Forest Crossroads
You should have all the ingredients necessary to creating the Carrot Flame at this point, now you just need to identify the ingredients and combine them in the correct order.
The first lines of the poem, drawing a white symbol on a rock and grinding the white powder, have already been completed.
Now you have to add black powder. The gunpowder in the DECAYED FIRECRACKER should work nicely!
Use the remaining CHALK POWDER on the DECAYED FIRECRACKER to make a POWDERED MIXTURE. Put the POWDERED MIXTURE into the COLA CAN.
The next step requires tree skin, tree fruit, and a root in that order.
Add the TREE BARK (skin), THREE ACORNS (fruit), and CRISP CARROT (root) to the CAN WITH POWDER MIXTURE.
Use the CAN WITH POWDER MIXTURE, BARK, ACORNS, AND CARROT on the ground near the center of the cross roads to create a Mysterious Circle Of Powder With Can.

Deliver the Leafboat to Spitzweg & Get Rid of the Greenhat
City Wall
Talk to the Pudgy Animal With Umbrella, who is named Spitzweg, standing at the left end of the wall.
He'll tell you he's waiting for a boat from the Hedgehog Brothers which is being delayed for some reason.
To find the Hedgehog Brothers, go back to the Town Center, follow the path Behind Town Hall, then continue through the tunnel to the Edge of Town.
Edge of Town
Talk to either the red or blue Hedgehog Brother to find out that the tools they need to construct the boat have been stolen by a greenhat.

You'll need to find him a rudder and anchor for the leafboat and also get rid of the large catfish that is swimming by the barrier.
Give Spitzweg the SILVER SUGAR SPOON that you found at the greenhat's pumpkin stash to add it as a makeshift rudder to the leafboat. You'll have to do a bit more exploring to take care of the other two tasks, so we'll come back later.
Walk to the Town Center, then go out to the Mousewood Town Gate. From there, take the stony path on the right to travel to the Bridge.
Find a Way Across the Bridge
Bridge
Talk to the little mouse Humbert who is guarding the bridge.

Next to the similarly glowing Strange Door you'll see a mailbox with the name A. Molena. Put the LETTER THAT APPEARS MAGICAL inside.
Finally all the mail has been delivered! You'll still need to unfreeze Plato's bike, but you're missing a few things to do that so we'll have to worry about it later.
For now, let's get back to helping Spitzweg make the final preparations for his boat. Go back to the Treetrunk Cafe.

Get Past Humbert Again
Bridge
After you hop out of the leafboat, click little Humbert to speak to him.

Ring the bell on the counter to call for Anja.
When she arrives, tell her that "One of the dwarves is sick!"
The both of you will automatically travel to the Hut of the Wood Dwarves where she'll give you a DOCTOR'S PRESCRIPTION containing a list of ingredients needed to create a medicine for Steinberg's cold. Afterwards, you'll be returned to the cafe.
Inspect the DOCTOR'S PRESCRIPTION note in your inventory to view the list. You'll need: a yellow marsh marigold bud, a fish scale, and some pepper.
You should already have the INDIAN WHITE PEPPER that Spitzweg gave to you after he left the leafboat, so there are just two ingredients left to find.

Plato can finally use his bicycle again, so now you just need to prepare the invitations!
Place the ANCIENT INVITATION TO THE TREE TOP FESTIVAL into the EMPTY OPENED ENVELOPE (that you picked up off the table in the cafe after delivering the mole's mail).
Use the SHIMMERING SNAIL you found on the huge beet behind the dwarf house on the OLD INVITATION IN OPEN ENVELOPE to seal the letter.
Add the MAGIC POSTAGE STAMP to the OLD INVITATION IN SEALED ENVELOPE to create a GIANT PILE OF INVITATIONS.
Give the GIANT PILE OF INVITATIONS to Plato.

He will also teach you how to play a game of Quartets.
Quartets is played a lot like the card game "Go Fish" however, instead of finding a pair of two cards, you must collect a quartet of four cards of the same suit.
To play, first select the suit of the card that appears at the center of the game at the start of your turn.
If you have multiple cards in your hand of a particular suit, you should pick that suit first.
Next, select the card you'd like to demand from the other player. The number of the card ranges from 1 to 4 and is indicated by the amount of symbols seen at the upper left corner of the card.
If the opposing player has the card you asked for, they must give it to you and you get to repeat your turn.
However, if they do not have the card you asked for, then you must draw a card from the deck and it is now your opponent's turn.
At the end of the game, whichever player has collected the most Quartets wins!
If you wish to quit the game early, click the X icon at the right side of the screen. Abandoning the game will count as a loss.
Once the game is over, the Magician will give you a STAR MAP and instruct you to use it near the Bridge.

Place the UNCANNY SOUND CARRIER inside the Hole In Big Old Tree Stump.
Examine the Big Old Tree Stump to find four carvings at its sides. You'll need to find four objects to place inside these carvings.

Once all the ambers are in place, the misshapen rock will create a room made of glass.
At the back of the glass room you'll see an Image Plate with a sliding tile puzzle that is impossible to solve.
Cast the Glimmmer of Hope spell on the Image Plate to break it which will also shut off the acid fountain.
Take the SILVER KEY in the base of the fountain.
Use the SILVER KEY to unlock the Mysterious Wooden Door and travel through the portal to the clearing of the first tree.
Escape the Mists
Crossroads
Cast the Advice Seeker spell to call the Magician for help.
The Magician will give you a piece of TREE BARK and instruct you to use it to cast a summoning spell like you did once before. He must mean the Carrot Flame!
After your conversation with the Magician, a Mysterious Raven will appear on the tree branch at the lower right corner. Click the raven to speak with it.
Ask, "What kind of place is this?" The raven will reveal a Stone Wheel at the top of the crossroads.
Click the Stone Wheel to turn it.
Windows into five different scenes will appear at the end of each path.
Click the Stone Wheel a second time to change the windows into five new scenes.
Remember the recipe to create a Carrot Flame? Reread the MYSTERIOUS MESSAGE in your inventory if you need a reminder:
"After drawing on rock a symbol all in white - grinding white to powder makes it right.
Then add black, in turn, the kind you should be loath burn.
Black and white as they combine, the inside of your vessel line.
Then three more things: tree skin, tree fruit, and lastly, but not least, a root.
At the crossroads, draw a circle with the powder mix obtained, put the vessel in the center of the powder ring thus gained.
Set the circle - bang! - on fire, the carrot flame leaps high and higher, and I will swallow it in haste to enjoy the lovely taste."
Use the INDIAN WHITE PEPPER to draw a symbol on the Stone With Marking.
Examine the Rusty Metal Door, Half Pried Open. Jerry will remark that it's the wood dwarves' locker and find that it's still locked.
Use the DRIED LONG BRUSH WITH SYRUP to open the locker and take the DWARF ROOT inside.
Search the NET WITH ACORNS from the window into the Town Hall scene at the top to take out THREE ACORNS.
Touch the Stone Wheel again to change the windows back to the five original scenes.
Inspect the Cannon to take out a handful of BLACK POWDER.
Combine the BLACK POWDER with the INDIAN WHITE PEPPER in your inventory to make a POWDER MIXTURE.
Put the POWDER MIXTURE, TREE BARK, THREE ACORNS, and DWARF ROOT in that specific order into the MUG WITH LOGO.
Use the MUD WITH POWDER MIXTURE, BARK, ACORN, AND ROOT on the center of the Crossroads marked by the three small, round stones to draw a Powder Circle With Mug on the ground.
Examine the Campfire in the far left scene to take out a burning piece of wood.
Use the burning wood on the Powder Circle With Mug to light it and cast the Carrot Flame.
If you click outside of the area, Jerry will burn his fingers. If that happens just pick up another charcoal from the Campfire.
Once the spell is complete, a masked magician will appear in the summoning circle.
Tell him, "I'm stuck here... all the paths are leading me in circles."
The magician will enchant your MAGIC COIN to show you the path.
To use it, select the MAGIC COIN then hold it over each path. The Coin will glow bright purple when it is in front of the correct path.
Follow the path highlighted by the coin four times to reach the First Tree.

Click the Machine to turn the fan towards the polar whale, which will free it from Zaroff's curse.
Remove the Nail beside the fan to take the SILVER NAIL and escape Zaroff's play.
Defeat Zaroff!
Zaroff will start the magic battle by casting a spell. For each spell he casts, use one of your own spells that matches in color.
If his spell is purple, counter it by casting your Rockwhisper spell on top of the symbol in the air.
If the spell is green, use the Greengrow spell.
If it's Red, use the Fox's Cunning Spell.
If Zaroff's spell is blue, use the Glimmer of Hope spell.
While the spell is in the air, quickly use one of the four nails from your inventory to draw the magic power out of the air.
Look through your MAGIC COIN to view what type of nail needs to be used on which particular spell.
The IRON NAIL should be used on a purple Rockwhisper spell cloud.
The SILVER NAIL is used on a green Greengrow spell cloud.
The BRONZE NAIL is used on the red Fox's Cunning spell cloud.
The GOLD NAIL is used on the blue Glimmer of Hope spell.
For each spell you absorb with the nail, Zaroff will lose one of his attacks. After you've absorbed all four of his spells, Zaroff will be defeated!
