Sly raccoon is an utter joy to play.
I remember booting it up and becoming absolutely enthralled - powering through the majority of the game in a single sitting and nearly losing a whole day to it.
Charming graphics, some good humour and a satisfying challenge curve. The series would later become less of a spiritual successor to the crash bandicoot games and open up into a more 3d action/adventure platform feel (fortunately something that it also did excellently). If you happened to love level based platforming and have somehow missed this one, though, it's a fantastic mix of nostalgia and growth of the formula.
