    've been a die hard fan of rayman games since the old days of dos and I have to say, Ubisoft did it again with another spectacular platforming experience. This game is about as perfect as platformers can get with a phenomenal sound track, beautiful level design and a slick control scheme (assuming you are using a gamepad of some sort).

    This game should have had 11 because Rayman Origins is already 10 and this one is an improvement. Unfortunatelly, rating system has it flaws and you cannot rate something better than the best.

    Had so much fun with this game. Best played on the couch with controllers and friends. Nice art for such low spec requirements. This game will runs great on my older laptop. Game is replayable.

    Rayman is back, in a best in class platformer. The game is brillant in all aspects: graphism, animation, handling. Mind you, it requires a pad the well known and appreciated xbox 360 is supported and works like a charm in this game. Some innovations will certainely be copied, and that's a good thing.
    Rayman Legends is fairly long, it took me approx 20 hours to get to the first ending.

    Rayman Legends is fairly long, it took me approx 20 hours to get to the first ending. But that's only 50% of the game! There are more levels that appear and can be unlocked. And for those that enjoy competition, there are 2 daily and 2 weekly challenges, where your skills to complete a level will be compared to this of other players.
    A word on the DRM: Rayman is protected by UPLAY. I cannot say I like it, but it proved to be working just a good as steam, if not better. That means it is non-obtrusive, and allowed me to play online, offline, after my computer resumed from suspend mode.
    Rayman Legends is a solid 10 for anyone into platformers!

    Brilian platformer!
    Join Rayman, Globox, and the Teensies as they run, jump, and slap their way through each world to get home, save the day, and discover the secrets of the legendary paintings!
    The only downside is the uPlay platform requirement.

    This game is a big surprise for me: The beginning was a bit boring, because the first world is too easy and the story is too simple. I thought this game is for kids, but it get better.

    I've never played a Rayman game before and so I had absolutely no idea what to expect when I started up Rayman Legends for the first time. Man, was I ever pleasantly surprised! It's truly one of the most fun games I've ever played. While not particularly deep from a gameplay perspective, good humor is bursting from every seam and it's impossible not to be swept along.

    I've never played a Rayman game before and so I had absolutely no idea what to expect when I started up Rayman Legends for the first time. Man, was I ever pleasantly surprised! It's truly one of the most fun games I've ever played. While not particularly deep from a gameplay perspective, good humor is bursting from every seam and it's impossible not to be swept along.

    The level design is perfect and the visuals are utterly spectacular. I find myself playing "just one more level" to see what incredible visual treats the game has in store for me next. I also have to shower praise on the game's composer, Christophe Héral. His music is as integral to the experience here as it is in classic Warner Bros. cartoons. You may find yourself replaying certain levels again and again just to enjoy the wonderful soundtrack. Of particular note is the fact that many of the tracks were recorded using a full orchestra, something which is very rare in games these days. Huge kudos to Ubisoft for being willing to spend the extra money to get such high quality results!

    In conclusion, Rayman Legends is pretty much a must-have game. I think gamers of all skill levels, ages and backgrounds will find plenty to enjoy here.

    Platform gaming at it's best... The only platformer that is truly as good as Super Mario games... A lot of others have tried in the past (crash bandicoot games , abes oddesey) but rayman games are the only ones to have achieved it. Amazing game , pure perfection...

    Yet again Ubisoft has blown me away with a new Rayman game. Too good for words, but I'll try to say it as humanly possible,OH MY GOD! It is so polished and well designed,creative, it had a cute new little mini games, background scores and that good old Rayman feel. I'm sure people will lose themselves in this enjoyable game, I know I did.

    If you enjoyed Origins you'll love this. This is seriously one of the best platformers I have ever played. The developers should be proud to have made such a refined and enjoyable game. The balance of difficulty is excellent and better than Origins, I think. I'm glad they let you skip the animation at the end of each level during the Lum tally.

    Rayman Legends goes down in my book as one of the finest platformers of all time. Fantastic music and game play that promoted a fair and natural difficulty progression kept me and my friends entertained and laughing all the way through. This game truly feels alive and was one of the most memorable experiences I've had with this genre. A must have game!

It's a thrilling example of a platform game, elevated by its artistic quality to the position of a living cartoon. There's a wonderful interaction between music and visual effects which means you'll rarely be in doubt how to handle a tricky jump even when you're hurtling towards it for the first time, since you'll feel the moment in the rhythm of the music. (Incidentally, this could be a problem for deaf gamers: best to try the demo first if you have hearing difficulties.)

    There's the welcome option of female characters, and not just one but several to unlock. Rayman and the other characters didn't appeal to me much, so I used Barbara and her sisters exclusively. You're never short of choices if a particular level is causing you a problem, with lots of "hallways" of missions, daily challenges, and remastered versions of all the levels from Rayman Origins.

    As if it needs saying: if you don't have an XBox controller, buy an XBox controller! This game, and many others, really benefit from it. You might not even realise how many great games you're subconsciously avoiding.

    Most likely one of the top 5 games I have ever played. And I have to say, I have been playing PC and console games for 20 years. Unique and absolutely perfect graphics, balanced gameplay, which offers a vast scale of difficulty. Many hours to be spent in this fantastic world. This game is a must for everyone who likes platformers. Sending regards to Montpellier.

    Probably the best platformer ever. Different game mechanics like running, jumping, hitting, swimming, flying, shooting. Perfect music. Excellent graphics and animation. Unlockable characters that are acutally fun. Enough challenge and levels to play it for days. And great co-op mode that works with any controllers. And you can even smash the letters in end-game credits.

    While in many ways superior to Origins I’m giving it the same score because it’s a little bit too similar in places, nevertheless Rayman Legends is one of the best platformers of all time and you should definitely buy it if you want to have a smile on your face.

    Rayman Legends falls just short of being an absolutely timeless classic, but that’s just about the worst thing anyone can say about it. It’s every bit as good as its predecessor — stronger on some fronts and a little weaker on others — and continues to strengthen Rayman’s position as an enduring gaming mascot.
