Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time is a video game for Windows and PlayStation. It was released in 1999 by Infogrames Entertainment, SA. A sequel, Bugs Bunny and Taz: Time Busters, was made for the same consoles and released a year later.

Plot

Bugs Bunny finds and activates a time machine after taking a wrong turn at Albuquerque. He ends up in Nowhere, home of a sorcerer named Merlin Munroe ("Moyle" to Bugs). Merlin explains to Bugs that he is lost in time and that he must travel through different eras to collect clocks symbols and golden carrots that will allow him to return to the present.

Gameplay

Players must help Bugs to go through five different eras of time to get back home.

Looney References

  • "Wabbit or Duck Season?" is an homage to "Rabbit Fire", which stars Elmer.
  • Yosemite Sam appears with his pirate persona from "Buccaneer Bunny" and "Captain Hareblower". "When Sam Met Bunny" is an homage to this short.
  • The common pirate enemy is based on Blacque Jacque Shellacque as he appeared in "Bonanza Bunny" and "Wet Hare".
  • "La Corrida" is an homage to "Bully for Bugs".
  • One of Hubie and Bertie appear in The Carrot Factory.
  • In "Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear" there is a place called 'TAZ BAR' referencing the Tasmanian Devil, and the real chocolate bar who would go on to appear in the game's sequel as Bugs' sidekick.
  • The royal castle part of "What's Cookin, Doc?" is inspired by "Rabbit Hood".
  • Daffy Duck appears in the Medieval Period with his persona from "Robin Hood Daffy".
