This game will make you keep on playing until you're tired. Once I started playing the game I didn't want to stop. I always wanted to know what will happen next. This game is highly addictive and immersive. The game starts out when Rayman is held in prison from the robot pirates, eventually his friend Globox gets captured and gets brought to the same cell as Rayman. Globox had a lum to give to Rayman and using that lum is how they escape, and Rayman's adventure begins. The objective of the game is to find the four masks which will help save the world from doom. On the way Rayman will be fighting robot pirates, swim, glide, even ride. Rayman's controls are pretty basic, jump, glide and shoot. As you advance through levels, the levels get harder and sometimes they involve a lot of thinking. As you're playing the levels, you also will have to collect lums, which are really important because they will help you advance through new worlds; if you collect every lum in a level you unlock a bonus stage. The graphics are really good and the sound and music are great. If you haven't tried this game you should, you won't believe the adventure that awaits for you in Rayman 2.
