Our take on The Rabbit and The Owl
The cooperative premise receives most of the attention, but solo play is also available through character switching. Online cooperation is presented only through an unofficial workaround, while the supported setup centers on shared-screen play and specified Xbox controllers.
What is The Rabbit and The Owl?
The Rabbit and The Owl is a cooperative puzzle-platformer set in Yril, a faded ancient world of forests, deserts, ruined cities, and Mount Rulnar.
The Rabbit and Owl occupy separate light and dark realms, so progress depends on coordinating their movement, abilities, and interactions with the environment. Each level introduces puzzle ideas and builds on earlier concepts while presenting a distinct solution. Platforming demands are kept low, with challenges focused mainly on examining situations and deciding what to do. The game can be played alone by switching between both characters or cooperatively with a friend on a shared screen. Its story unfolds through the world’s mythology and traces of Yril’s past.
