The visual appearance of all the characters is thought out to the smallest detail, so the pirates fully justify the expectation and look menacing, and the Keeper of the Cave of Bad Dreams seemed to have come out of a nightmare. Music is one of the main components that create the atmosphere. Each level has its own set of melodies that switch depending on what is happening on the screen, and can even change their tempo.
Rayman 2: The Great Escape is a quality platformer that never gets bored, and thanks to the reverent attention to detail, it can deeply immerse you in a fantasy atmosphere.

The great thing about the game is that you do not have to find every single item to advance to the next world so the inexperienced gamer can still continue on and the hardcore gamer can keep searching the levels to get percent. This fact alone helps the game be fun for the entire family.
Another good thing about this game is the control. Rayman goes exactly where you direct him and jumping and shooting are instantaneous. Sure, that seems obvious but some games just miss this key element, especially in platform games where control is critical. You will hear no complaints from this gamer on the controls. It was amazing to me how different the majority of levels were from one another. It seemed like no two levels were even remotely similar.
There were levels focused on swimming, water-skiing, sliding down mountains, and climbing huge spider webs. Sure, there was some crossover between the things you do on levels but I could not wait for a new level just to see what I would encounter next.
Some of the levels are a little frustrating the level that has you sliding down a hill with very hard to see semi-transparent obstacles in the way comes immediately to mind but the challenges never get to the point of not wanting to play any longer. The last thing that I want to mention on the positive side of the game is all of the different characters and enemies who will cross your path.
They did a great job of creating the characters in this game. One level has you battling robot pirates while another has you fighting a giant spider.
There are plenty of other enemies, like the Zombie Chickens, that I can't even describe. You have plenty of friends who like to help you out as well. You will literally save the whales at least one anyway. Then there is sssssam, a serpent that takes you water-skiing across marshes. These are only the tip of the iceberg. You'll just have to play and find the rest of the characters on your own. I did have a pretty major complaint with the game though.
If you have ever read my reviews on 3D platform games, what is the one thing that I always complain about? If you guessed camera, you win! As per usual, the camera can be a real pain in the backside. It seems like the places where you need the best camera control were the places where the annoying buzzer would sound, signaling that you can't change your camera. With precision jumps and shots needed, a troublesome camera adds difficulty to tasks that should not be terribly difficult, which adds a bit of frustration.
There are worse games out there but this one is not perfect either. I had a couple of other minor complaints as well. First, you can't bypass the little cut-scene stories. Cut-scenes get old to me after playing a game for a while so I prefer to skip them. Too bad, no can do. Also, there were times where I would try and jump in the water and I would just die while other times, I could swim. Most of the places that you could not swim were marked so if I did not see anything telling me not to swim, I would try and die.
Finally, I just really hated the fact that the characters spoke gibberish. If you're interested at all in platform gaming with great character, this should be the one. How to run this game on modern Windows PC? Contact: , done in 0. Search a Classic Game:. Rayman 2: The Great Escape screenshots:.
