Return Of The Phantoms is an adventure that was added in July 2013, and the first "real" adventure made available to play. One's animal must be at least Level 1 to play normal mode, with average prizes, and Level 2 for hard mode, with more phantoms and better prizes. The initiative is to help save Bunny Burrow and to rescue four Bunnies called Jack, Snowball, Oliver, and Daisy, who have been trapped by the Phantoms.
Walkthrough
- Liza will appear and start the quest, telling the player what they need to know, which is that the Phantoms have invaded Bunny Burrow.
- There will be four bunnies available to talk to (Buster, Harvey, Binky, and Pumpkin), though only Pumpkin will trigger the next part, showing the player the cork, and telling you to plug up the Phantom Pipe that's contaminating the water.
- The player must search for more corks to plug the rest of the pipes, cleaning the river and wells. The corks will usually change places.
- Once clean, The player can walk in the clean river, giving the player access to treasures, a plant, and Cookie, the fifth NPC.
- After completing one's new quest and watering the plants, Binky the NPC Bunny lets the player in her parent's den to find George and Clover. Talking to Clover will trigger the Phantom Key for the Phantom Door to appear.

Tips
- When handling phantoms, try to avoid them as much as possible, only attacking/getting into view when absolutely needed. If you run out of traps, try to trap them yourself by having them chase you into a spot they won't be able to return to their original spot from. For instance, you get a phantom to chase you into a tree, you run around the tree so they're running against it, and at some point they will give up on you. You are now free to go if you have trapped it in a way so you can easily avoid it.
- There are many gem-giving chests scattered around. There are also secrets: the first one comes when you run towards the bunny area, but run downwards into the clump of trees. There will be a chest with 200 Gems (on Easy). The next is right near Cookie; run down right into the clump of trees next to her and there will be a chest with 400 Gems (on Hard). There is also a chest if you go down river from bunny burrow. Follow the river until you find the chest.
- Play Hard Mode for better prizes (your animal must be level 2 or over).
- You can earn a total of about (may not be exact) 1,450 Gems on Normal Mode of the adventure, and about 1,650 on the Hard Mode of the adventure.
- You earn more courage if you do the adventure by yourself or with one other person. Additionally, try to trap as many phantoms as you can, in a logical order so you don't have to run back and forth for chomper plants.
