🌈Rainbow Bunny Bop 🐰 Board Game Review

I heard about Rainbow Bunny Bop on a podcast and I had to get it. A rainbow game where you race? Sign me up. Adorable bunnies, fast flipping, and a lot of shouting colors at your family? That’s my kind of game!

I was so excited, I actually contacted the designer, Becky Young, and she was nice enough to sign my copy! (I may or may not have also paid for FedEx expedited shipping just so I could play it with my family who was visiting... no regrets 🙈)

This game is fast and it play sup to four players. You can combine two decks to play up to 8. Players race to build rainbows in the right ROYGBIV (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet) order. Whoever manages to get rid off all their cards first, wins! The game is frantic, adorable, and sneaky educational

📦 What's In the Box

Please note that my copy is from before the rebranding. The game now comes in a very sturdy box that's more vibrant and the game has been renamed from Rainbow Rabbits to Rainbow Bunny Bop. Nonetheless, the game comes with:

• 4 decks of rainbow cards (one deck per player)

• Adorable art featuring unique designed per bunny and their unique patterns in the back

• Easy to follow rulebook

• Optional wild cards for added chaos

🐇 Setup

1. After your nieces (at least mine) are done awing, each player picks a deck

2. Every player shuffles their deck

3. Start flipping!

How It Plays

When someone yells "Go!", it’s every bunny for themselves. You’re flipping one card at a time, racing to build rainbows in the center of the table — one color at a time, in the classic ROYGBIV order. Red starts the stack, but only three rainbows can be in progress at once. And here’s the kicker: you can only play the top card you just flipped. No digging, no peeking — just hope the rainbow gods are on your side. I cannot tell you how infuriating it is to flip the colors you needed a second ago, or green when someone just beat you to yellow. But when you get to slap down a few cards in a row? Chef’s kiss!

When you burn through your deck, you pick up your discard, shuffle and start flipping again. Rainbows get cleared from the center of the table once someone places violet. The game is fast and loud. My nieces love this game and I've even played it with some of my family that doesn't speak English. I like that the game is sneakily educational. You can teach little ones the rainbow order, color recognition, and from time to time a little English too.

First to play all their cards wins. Rainbow Bunny Bop plays fast enough, you can do two rounds in less than thirty minutes

🌟 Pros

• 🌈 Beautiful art

• 🎓 Simple rules

• 🔄 Highly replayable

• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Great for families or mixed-skill groups

🧐 Considerations

• The game is for up to 4 players, but you can get a second copy and play with up to 8

• Very light game — If you want strategy or long-term planning, this isn’t it

• Adults will most likely lose to the children in the house

  
  

🎯 Bottom Line

Rainbow Bunny Bop is pure, chaotic, rainbow-colored joy. If you’re looking for a high-energy filler game that gets everyone laughing (and shouting colors at the top of their lungs), this little box of bunnies is worth hopping into your collection
