Devil Bunny Needs a Ham is brought to you by the wonderful folks at Cheapass Games. This game is chock full of the random humor one can expect from Cheapass, but unfortunately the fun stops there.
In the game each player has a "cadre of wily sous-chefs" who are all climbing a very tall building. The goal is to score the most points by getting your sous-chefs to the top of the building faster than the other players. However it's not that easy. Devil Bunny needs a ham, and for some reason he thinks he can get one by knocking you off the building.
In the beginning players find themselves rather crowded near the bottom of the building; since Devil Bunny always tries to knock of the highest player no one wants to put themselves too far ahead of the pack. Things become more spread out as more people get knocked to the ground by Devil Bunny, and no sooner has one crossed the dreaded "line of death" before they are killed by Devil Bunny or roll their way to safety at the top of the building. As you see, the game starts off slow but ends rather quickly, the full game takes about 20-30 minutes.
Aside from the humor, the game is as best a mildly interesting game of rolling dice. The game requires 2-5 players, 2 or 3 6-sided dice, and 2 or 3 markers for each player, the game costs $2.
