How Cozy? ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Game Verdict: ⭐⭐⭐/5
Bunny Park is exactly what it sounds like: a gentle, low-pressure game about building a park to attract adorable bunnies. It’s small in scope, simple in design, and clearly intended to be played slowly and casually.
I played Bunny Park on the Nintendo Switch during a quiet afternoon and ended up enjoying it more than I expected. It’s not a game that asks much of you, but sometimes that’s exactly what you want.
Story
There isn’t really a traditional story in Bunny Park, and that feels intentional. Instead, the game focuses on the simple joy of building and watching your park slowly fill with different types of rabbits. Progression comes from unlocking new items, attracting new bunnies, and completing your collection rather than following any kind of narrative. It’s light, unobtrusive, and never gets in the way of the cozy atmosphere.

Gameplay
At its core, Bunny Park is a sandbox management game with very gentle systems.
You plant crops like carrots and pumpkins to attract different bunny types, each of which rewards you with coins when they eat. You can also pet the rabbits to increase their happiness, which boosts the overall happiness of the park and helps your park grow.
Key gameplay features include:
Bunny Collection: Attract and unlock a variety of bunnies, each with their own cute designs
Light Park Management: Use coins to place furniture, decorations, and more crops
Happiness System: Pet bunnies to keep them happy and improve your park
Tool Unlocks: Unlock tools that automate tasks like collecting coins or petting rabbits
Relaxed Sandbox Play: No pressure, no failure states, and no timers
I really enjoyed decorating my bunny park and gradually unlocking new items as I went. Watching new bunnies appear and join the mix was genuinely satisfying, and the automation tools were a nice touch, letting me focus more on layout and design.
That said, the Switch controls did feel a little clunky at times, especially when navigating between menus and the park itself. It’s not game breaking, but it does interrupt the flow occasionally.
Graphics and Visuals
Bunny Park leans fully into a cute, chunky art style. The visuals are bright, colourful, and very approachable. While not particularly detailed or sophisticated, the aesthetic works well for the tone of the game. Each bunny has a distinct design, which makes collecting them feel rewarding, and the overall presentation is cheerful and comforting. It’s the kind of art style that feels immediately cozy, even if it’s fairly simple.
Longevity
Bunny Park is a short experience. I completed the game in around four hours, collecting all the bunnies in a single sitting. While that made for a really pleasant afternoon, it also means there isn’t much reason to return once everything is unlocked.
It’s best suited for players who enjoy:
Short, complete cozy experiences
Sandbox decorating without complexity
Low pressure management games
Collecting cute creatures
If you’re looking for something endlessly replayable, Bunny Park probably won’t hold your attention long-term, but that doesn’t stop it from being enjoyable while it lasts.
Conclusion
Bunny Park is a sweet, relaxing little game that does exactly what it sets out to do. It’s cozy, cute, and perfect for a calm afternoon where you just want to decorate, collect bunnies, and unwind.
While the clunky Switch controls and limited replayability hold it back slightly, the charming visuals, gentle gameplay, and satisfying progression make it an easy recommendation for cozy gamers looking for a short, self contained experience. I may not rush back to replay it, but I’m glad I spent the time I did in my bunny park.
