Despite a complete lack of the title character, Rayman, this game proves funny and inventive without including anything that might be referred to as plot. ‘How?’ you may be asking... but only if you have never heard of the Rabbids. Many of the jokes are as flat as a piece of paper which has been sat on by an elephant with unlimited doughnut resources. But the appearance of the Rabbids is absolutely hilarious. Nobody under the age of thirteen could keep a straight face when the Rabbid restroom door creaks open.
OK. Funny. But what about the game? Is it good? Does it last? Sadly, no.It is a collection of mini-games. It would take an experienced eleven-year old about an hour to get through 90% of the it but the remaining 10% is almost impossibly hard, which gives it a difficulty curve so jagged it is dangerous to touch.
In terms of graphics, this is a good game but Ubisoft could have done so much more with what they had available.
So... the verdict: I would recommend this game, but only to gamers who are good for their age and don’t mind trying to beat their scores again and again: everyone else I would warn to avoid it!
My score: For under 11s: 64% For over 11s: 86%
And for all the 11 year olds out there, make up your own mind
