Evaluation

The Night of the Rabbit launched on May 28, 2013 as a complete, story-driven adventure game. Its only DLC — the Premium Edition Upgrade — was released on May 27, 2016, and no further content has ever been announced or listed. There is no roadmap, no unreleased DLC, and no developer statement suggesting additional content is planned. The game has continued to receive maintenance and compatibility patches well into 2024–2025. A notable round of updates in December 2024 added Linux/Steam Deck support, gamepad support, touch input, and new subtitle languages (Chinese, Japanese, Korean), followed by several bug-fix patches through February 25, 2025. These are platform and quality-of-life improvements rather than new story or gameplay content — they reflect Daedalic keeping the game accessible on modern hardware, not an ongoing content development cycle. The game is complete as a product. Anyone who purchases it today receives the full experience, with the Premium Edition Upgrade being the only optional extra.

About this game

Lose yourself in a tale of magic and wonder, where anything is possible and where nothing is quite as it seems: join young Jerry and follow a peculiar white rabbit to the wondrous realm of Mousewood, a land where critters can speak and where mystery abounds.

It is here that Jerry’s dream of being a magician comes true, though a haunting, sinister force casts a long shadow over the forest. Someone offers the residents of Mousewood a deal of their lifetime - tickets to the greatest magic show that the world has ever seen. But the price is steep, as they'll have to stake their most precious possessions and also their lives.

As the shadows grow deeper, the residents of Mousewood have only Jerry to turn to. On an adventure full of laughter and tears, joy and fear, the young boy will face the ultimate trial, leaving behind the world he once knew, and his childhood, too, will become a thing of the past.
