Rabbitii 2
Why We Picked Rabbitii 2
Rabbitii 2 keeps its levels short, its retries cheap and its hints to itself. Forgiving about the retry and strict about the route, which is the right balance. It is generous with retries and stingy with hints, which is the better combination. It ranks 2 of 183 on the adventure shelf, which is crowded with longer games. On the record: 4.4 out of 5 from 1,250 ratings.
How to Play
The game is small enough to explain in three lines:
- Steer with the arrow keys; the rest of the game is timing.
- Reach the end of the level with what you picked up on the way.
- Use the fullscreen view; the edges of the level matter as much as the middle.
Editor’s Note
The limit to know: there is rarely a difficulty setting, and later levels assume you kept up. Most of these run on a keyboard or a pointer; a few accept touch, and none require a plugin or a download.

Rabbitii 2 is a 2D platformer that sends a determined little rabbit on a carrot-collecting quest across eight handcrafted stages. As the sequel to the original Rabbitii, it sticks with what worked: tight jumping, clear goals, and a cheerful look that hides a steadily rising challenge. Each level asks you to gather every carrot scattered around the map and then reach the pink flag to move on, which sounds easy until the hazards start piling up.
The controls are classic and responsive. Move with the WASD or arrow keys, and press W or the up arrow twice in quick succession to perform a double jump, which is essential for reaching high platforms and escaping trouble. The carrot requirement means you cannot simply sprint for the exit; you need to explore each level thoroughly, venturing into risky corners where the last few carrots are usually tucked away.
Standing between you and the flag are enemy rabbits patrolling the ground, flying rabbit bots guarding the air, and beds of spikes that punish sloppy landings. The difficulty increases as you proceed through the eight levels, layering more enemies and tighter jumps onto layouts that demand precise double jumps and good timing. Early stages let you settle in, but the later ones will test platforming veterans.
A few habits will save lives. Watch enemy patrol patterns before committing to a jump, and remember that waiting half a second is free while a respawn is not. Use the double jump conservatively; holding the second jump in reserve lets you correct a bad leap midair. Plan your carrot route so the riskiest pickups come first, when a mistake costs the least time.
Players who grew up on retro side-scrollers, and anyone who enjoys compact, challenging platformers with collect-a-thon goals, will feel at home here. It runs free in your browser on desktop and mobile, making it easy to hop in for a level or two.
