You play as Rayman a cute big nosed chap with no legs, no arms and a head
without visible means of support. The game is a traditional side scroller with beautiful
landscapes as backgrounds from psychadelic to more psychadelic. It revolves around
the titular character's quest to save his world from the evil Mr. Dark. Rayman's main
weapon is throwing his clenched fist at his enemies, but as his quest toughens,
Betilla the Fairy will bestow him with additional powers. The object of the game is
to free all the electoons and defeat Mister Dark's minions across five worlds. Only
when every electoon is freed will Rayman be able to enter into Mister Dark's hideout
Candy Chateau. Scattered around each level are little blue spheres called Tings. If
Rayman picks up a hundred of them, he gains an extra life, but they can also be used
to pay the Magician, and enter a bonus stage. When Rayman dies, he loses all of the
Tings he collected. As well as Tings Rayman will come across a variety of other
power-ups and bonuses, among which a golden punching fist, a faster punching fist,
power to restore Rayman's lost life energy and flying blue elves that will shrink
Rayman down in size. |
