(Playroom Entertainment, 2002 - Jeffrey Neil Bellinger).  There is
quite a vocal denouncement against the game by several on the internet,
with several others speaking of their enjoyment of the game.  So I was
very interested in playing the game to find out what I thought of it -
but also because the name of the game intrigued me.

...that's why the game has succeeded in my game groups, because people
have a fun time playing it.  The situations that occur in the game are
utterly ridiculous, and afterwards, more talk about the black hole that
killed a bunny is mentioned than talk about the player who won.  If
you're looking for a game that is simply a lot of fun, with a
sprinkling of strategy in it, then Killer Bunnies is the game for you.
Don't come into the game too seriously, and you'll leave with good
memories.

I agree. This is the only game that has been explicitly asked for when my children and grand-children have come to stay for a weekend. It is a quick setup, simple to play, boisterous, fun game. When I go visit my daughter has said "don't forget the bunnies game!"

My question is ... are there any more games that have a good degree of thinking, interaction and fun ?? (so maybe even better than Bunnies?)
