Reviews around challenge (4.66 of 5)

  • I die a
  • Its challenging and you need team work to pass each level would recommend it , best 4 player game.
  • Challenge is great, but this was really excessive at times, especially for a game that comes off as friendly and approachable
  • The game is a challenge in some ways and very exciting to the kids!
  • If you are looking for a masterfully crafted and very challenging platformer, then buy this game for sure.

Reviews around experience (4.58 of 5)

  • This is not those split screen coop experience you have in call of duty games, instead, this game provides the pure old school fun time when you have a friend over playing a game together and laughing.
  • In summation, this is an extremely enjoyable experience.
  • The whacky graphics, music, characters and game play all make for a fantastic fun experience
  • Out of all the games that I was able to play in 2011 (including Skyrim), this was the easily the best experience
  • Rayman origins is a spectacular experience that I just couldn't put down

Reviews around graphic (4.52 of 5)

  • It's a mixture of all the best elements of 2D Super Mario Bros (small part of Sonic), mixed in with stunning HD graphics
  • Beautiful graphics, love to play this game no matter how many times I fail to win :)
  • while this game has some impressive graphics and art for a side scroller, it just wasn't my thing.
  • This game is very good, with great graphics and very funny, and has the ability to play with four friends

Reviews around mario (4.51 of 5)

  • In Rayman, you can defeat your enemies by either jumping on top of them (think Mario Bros) or punching/kicking them
  • I die a
  • Rayman Origins borrows some from New Super Mario Bros. Wii but manages to out perform its inpiration
  • Like LittleBigPlanet and New Super Mario Bros., less is more when it comes to conquering the campaign.
  • Up to 4 players can play at the same time, and I found the experience to be more enjoyable than New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

  • I die a
  • It's a top-quality 2-D platformer, with excellent level design, smooth animation and a beautiful art style, all in 1080p.

  • Gorgeous and challenging levels, hilarious characters, amazing art and graphics

Reviews around design (4.18 of 5)

  • However, my problem with Donkey Kong Country Returns was mostly due to the stupid motion controls and not level design
  • It's not the enemies that'll be a problem, however, it'll mostly boil down to the environmental hazards mixed in with the well tuned level designs
  • As a series, the Rayman games have always been known for their whimsical imagination, beautiful art design, silly stories, lovely humor, and an overall saturation of pleasant FUN
  • Rayman Origins is one of the most beautiful and well designed games that I have ever played
  • what was expected recommended product is working as designed, no problems with this item at all, kids are playing without a problem

Reviews around play (3.99 of 5)

  • This game is hands down one of the best games I've ever played.
  • One of the most lighthearted, fun games I've played in a long time.
  • This is hands down the most imaginative, exciting, and downright crazy and bizarre video game I've ever played
  • I prefer playing with 2 people as opposed to playing by myself (I've not yet played with more than 2 players total) because teamwork really helps in this game
  • Rayman Origins is one of the most beautiful and well designed games that I have ever played

Reviews around gameplay (3.95 of 5)

  • We received Rayman during the whole fiasco with the PSN a little while back, and I fell in love with the cooperative gameplay
  • In a game with such otherwise perfect control and gameplay, Rayman deserves better
  • The original 2-D Rayman had a lot of charm, but the gameplay was definitely the aspect most lacking, but here
  • This is undoubtedly the best gameplay of any Rayman game
  • It's one thing for a game to be entertaining, but at the end of the day, if the gameplay isn't good, the whimsy and imagination matters very little

Reviews around player (3.68 of 5)

  • Up to 4 player at the same time witch makes it more fun
  • Particularly during the speed mode in-game, you often feel as though you're slipping through the level effortlessly like one of those NES game speed runs you see on youtube (the player of which has devoted hundreds of hours no doubt).
  • It's a good thing that Rayman Origins doesn't punish the player when things are grim, however.
  • But since that's not possible, it forces players to waste an absurd amount of time in a state of complete frustration.

Reviews around level (3.66 of 5)

  • This may sound frustrating, but the more challenging levels are slowly learned and put together step by step like a fast-paced puzzle, and what started out looking like an impossible level quickly becomes an amazing sequence of precise jumps, slides, floats and hops to a successful completion capped with a rewarding sense of accomplishment
  • The levels are incredible, it's a great looking game and it can be enjoyed with friends
  • Gorgeous and challenging levels, hilarious characters, amazing art and graphics
  • The levels are incredible, it's a great looking game and it can be enjoyed with friends.
  • Beyond the graphics, the gameplay itself is fantastic, with an inventive level design that keeps the game fresh and exciting

Reviews around music (3.63 of 5)

  • Rayman Origins is fantastic, the co-op play is seamless, the music is great, its funny and charming, the graphics rock, and its such an easy pick up game that you won't be able to put it down!
  • After several weeks of playing it in our common room, my roommate politely asked me to turn it down or put in headphones because they found the music to be "very annoying".That being said, Rayman Origins had redeeming qualities:-The background illustrations were inarguably awesome
  • The graphics are awesome, the game is colorful, and the music is great
  • SO much fun, and SUCH great music, I find it as much (or maybe more!!
  • It's also worth noting that the music and "voices" (hilarious, nonsensical babbling) in this game are perfect
