Remember Rayman? The game hit the scene back in 1996, and it turned out to be one of the last original side-scrollers to appear, before the gaming world turned inexorably towards 3D gaming. At the time of its release, Rayman was a completely satisfying platform game, with superb graphics, a perfect mix of action and puzzle elements, and a great title character who gets cool power-ups (like the ability to fly) as the game progresses.

Of course, a lot has happened in the gaming world since 1996, and the original game no longer stands on its own merits as a reason to own Rayman Forever.

For the fanatics: Rayman Forever ships not only with the original Rayman game, but with 40 additional levels designed by other players. As with any collection of this sort, the additional levels have their high and low points, but playing Rayman through so many new and different scenarios is a lot of fun. The levels are grouped together in a clever course where you collect tokens as you work your way through.
