WHAT IS RADIOACTIVE RABBIT? Radioactive Bunny is a 2-4 players educational multiplayer team-based strategy game for ages 7+ that puts players in different scenarios where they may encounter radiation. The purpose of the game is for every player to get through the game without being harmed by radiation exposure while learning about all the basic forms of radiation one may be exposed to over a lifetime, ways one may put themselves at risks of radiation exposure, ways to prevent and treat radiation exposure, and historical events that have caused widespread Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS), also known as radiation poisoning.

HOW TO PLAY Each player starts at the orange space on the board and starts with 0 radioactive stripes. The goal of the game is that all players work together as one team to get each player to make at least one round around the board, back to the orange space everyone started at, without anyone becoming radioactive for there to be any win. If even one player garners all three radioactive stripes from being radiation poisoned 3 times by their last turn, they lose the game, and everyone loses with them. Like in the healthcare system, it is a collective cause and there should be no man left behind.
Cards are sorted into 5 color-coded decks based on the type of card it is.
