The N64 is a great place to go for a classic 3D platformer, isn't it? Rayman 2 delivers in that aspect very well. Imaginative worlds, fun ideas, memorable soundtrack & gameplay that keeps you engaged from beginning to end. Childhood me had some trouble here & there with some of the challenges, but finally getting to the next level after many attempts was exhilarating & always worthwhile. A late 90s gem for sure.

Really solid and well polished 3D platformer with some pretty great levels, doesn't really offer much challenge though.
Dreamcast port is the best version.

Can't remember what I thought about this game. All I know is that I played it on my 3ds back in 2013. Was one of my first games.

Rayman 2: The Great Escape is a classic 3D platformer, but it definitely shows its age on the N64. The visuals are charming and the levels are creative, but the camera can be a nightmare and the difficulty spikes are pretty harsh. If you have nostalgia goggles for this era, you'll probably love it. But if you're looking for a smoother experience, the later re-releases on other platforms are the way to go.
