Gameplay

Reviews

Panasonic Interactive Media, parent of Ripcord Games, invested heavily in Space Bunnies Must Die!'s advertising and development. However, it became a commercial failure: the NPD Group reported sales of 2,458 copies for 1998. The game was one of several missteps by Panasonic Interactive Media that led to its closure in March 1999, with Ripcord Games sold to an anonymous outside group.[1]

Criticized for its bland gameplay, confusing levels, and game-breaking glitches, Space Bunnies Must Die! usually received mediocre or low scores in review.[2]
