Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time

The game finds the player (Bugs Bunny) in a race to collect time clocks. To progress in the game, Bugs must complete stages and various objectives which earn them; stages may also contain clocks out in the open that Bugs can collect, as well as golden carrots. If the player meets a certain threshold of clocks or golden carrots, they will unlock new stages or a new time era (serving as the game's hub worlds ), which become accessible by means of a time machine . The player starts off in an area titled "Nowhere", which acts as a tutorial level; Bugs will learn the basic moves he needs to use to progress through the game.

He can kick, jump, pick up objects, roll, jump into rabbit holes to move underground, tiptoe to avoid alerting other enemies, climb ropes, and use his rabbit ears like propellers to slowly descend to the ground from high places. Bugs can also move some objects to get to certain places. Enemies in the game are mostly simple to beat. Some can be defeated with a kick or a jump, while others may require Bugs to be chased by an enemy until they run out of breath, after which they can be kicked from the back.

There are also special abilities for Bugs to learn from Merlin much later as he progresses through the game. While in the time machine, there are five different eras (spanning 21 levels in total) for Bugs to visit. They are the Stone Age , Pirate Years , The 1930s , Medieval Period , and Dimension X . Each level has a varying amount of clock symbols and golden carrots for Bugs to find.

There are also normal carrots for Bugs to pick up, which act as health. Carrots can be collected by finding them scattered in a level. He can hold up to 99 carrots. After completing a level, Merlin will appear and the player can decide if they wish to save their progress up to that point.
