While some may be turned off by its "cutesy" look, those who delve into this game will find it ripe with a humor found in many Warner Bros. cartoons. The slapstick jokes make the game enjoyable, and the graphics, as over-the-top as they may be, keep you enraptured.
Now, the game is not without its faults. Midway through the game I found myself questioning when it was going to turn into the sort of game I grew accustomed to with the previous entries in the Rayman series. If that is what you are looking for, you will be disappointed as this game is strictly mini-games.
Another issue I had was with the length of the game compared to the "ultra-short" mini-games, themselves. I kept thinking that I wasn't going to finish the game and had it not been for the fact that half of the achievements on the xbox 360 version are so easy to get, I probably would have sent the game back without finishing it.
Oddly enough, it did seem rewarding at times to progress through the game when, for instance, the crowd finally starts cheering your character on, or they upgrade your prison cell to a prison "living space."
Altogether, it wasn't terrible, but don't go into the game with grand expectations and you will fare well.
