^{"This is another beautiful map. The garden theme is nice and well done with the small cabin etc. Both the zombies and bats fit in quite well - but the cute little bunni... er... cruel mutated monster rabbits are just extremely cool and really imaginative. There are also a few mages at the end of the level. I'm really in two minds if I like this map more than the previous forest level or vice versa. Anyway: Two thumbs way up for the designers!"

Trivia

• The innocuous seeming rabbits that later turn vicious are very reminiscent of the Rabbit of Caerbannog from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975).
• It also reminds of the Jimmy Carter rabbit incident that captured public attention partly because of the above mentioned film.
• The 1997 first-person shooter Shadow Warrior also features rabbits in the game, emphasizing their propensity to breed to comic effect. Save for two specific occasions, they serve merely as cannon fodder in that game. In the 2013 remake however there is always a chance of spawning a hostile Demon Rabbit, succeeded by Bunny Lords in Shadow Warrior 2. The original Shadow Warrior was also worked on in its early stages by Catacomb Adventure Series designer Greg Malone as a producer.
