Eight games developed by Rare for the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance feature a recurring Easter egg: a crude drawing of a bovine eating a flower. Dubbed the "Rare Cow", it made its first known appearance in Conker's Pocket Tales in 1998, and last appeared in It's Mr. Pants in 2004.

The game cartridge contains two separately programmed games; one for the Game Boy Color and one for the original Game Boy. The story remains the same, however some of the gameplay mechanics are different, as are some of the game locations themselves.
