Review of Rayman: Raving Rabbids

Rayman is having a nice picnic with some globox friends and then is suddenly captured by a flock of rabbits that has come to take over his home, he is forced to participate in mini games that have to do with the rabbits from shooting at them dancing in tune and many other wacky adventures. As a reward for passing each mission after four successful mini games Rayman is given a plunger, which in the rabbit community is a huge honor. The first day he gets brought back to his cell and throws the plunger with it sticking to the wall. He then looks up and sees a window, from that point on he goes through several different stages and many mini games missions getting more and more plungers so that he can reach the top where the window is. While doing these missions he is equipped with some new clothing and music for his music box. As Rayman accomplishes more and more less and less rabbits are at the coliseum to watch him, and the guard starts treating him better leading to his surroundings being upgraded, no more leaky toilet and such.

The games on this are fairly good, they are more funny than anything in my opinion. Mini games like Bunnies can't sheer sheep, Bunnies don't like carrot juice and Bunnies can't jump are just a few of the 128 mini games that appear as challenges. In the end Rayman gets the last plunger and goes up through the window and that's it. Kind of a dry ending leaving a lot of questions about the baby globoxes and what happens to the others but still the game is very good. Theres is also rumor that there may be a 5th installment to the game series out in the near future.

The songs are very catchy, mostly famous songs that you would hear at a party, and the games are very unique to say the least, just as you think you are going to finally get the hang of doing one mini game because you did it before a new one takes is place. The animation is awesome and when I played in one of the many hundred times I did not run into glitches and black holes like you do in some other games. I was addicted immedialty to the slapstick humor this game had to offer and the mini games that were involved, and played it for hours on end. The game runs about 26.99 at your local game store, for what its worth that's not a bad deal, this game is about 48 hours or more of game play. I'd suggest picking up a copy and seeing how you like Rayman Raving Rabbids.
