Whack the Rabbit is base on the arcade game wack the mole.

Each hole contains a single rabbit and they move it up and down. Once the game starts, the rabbit will begin to pop up from their holes at random. The object of the game is to force the individual rabbit back into their holes by hitting them directly on the head with the vegetable, thereby adding to the player's score. The quicker this is done the higher the final score will be.
