Rayman Advance is an exciting action platform game for the Game Boy Advance released in 2001 by Ubisoft.
This is a port of the classic Rayman game and offers players a unique adventure experience, combining brilliant graphics with innovative gameplay.
Story: Saving the Dream World
On the planet where Rayman lives, all harmony is maintained by the Great Protoon. But when the evil Mr. Dark steals the Protoons, the world is thrown into chaos. The small creatures that maintain balance, the Electoons, are imprisoned in cages and scattered across six magical lands.
Betilla the Fairy, the guardian of the Protoons, tries to stop Mr. Dark but fails. To restore peace, Rayman sets out on a journey to rescue the Electoons, retrieve the Protoons, and confront Mr. Dark at the Candy Chateau. Along the way, Betilla appears frequently to assist Rayman with magical powers, helping him overcome his challenges.
Gameplay: Action and Strategy Blend
Rayman Advance retains the original’s engaging side-scrolling gameplay, but is optimized for the Game Boy Advance platform. Players control Rayman through six colorful worlds, from the lush Dream Forest to the dazzling Candy Chateau. Each world has unique challenges and a memorable final boss.
The player’s mission is to rescue all the Electoons trapped in cages. Only when they are all rescued can Rayman face Mr. Dark. The game requires skillful control and creative problem-solving, with skills that Rayman gradually learns from Betilla the Fairy such as:
- Punch from a distance to destroy enemies.
- Fly by spinning your hair like a helicopter propeller.
- Swing, sprint, and grab ledges to overcome obstacles.
In each level, players will collect Tings, sparkling orbs that increase lives or unlock bonus stages. Additionally, items like the Golden Fist or the Speed Fist help enhance Rayman’s fighting abilities.
Colorful World and Unique Characters
Rayman’s journey takes players through exotic lands, each meticulously designed with its own atmosphere:
- Dream Forest: Dreamy forests with magical trees and streams.
- Band Land: A musical land filled with soaring notes and giant saxophones.
- Blue Mountains: Snowy peaks and eerie rocks.
- Picture City: An artistic kingdom filled with sharp pencils and dangerous paintbrushes.
- Skops’ Caverns: Dark caves ruled by giant scorpions.
- Candy Chateau: A sweet yet challenging land where the final battle with Mr. Dark takes place.
Memorable enemies like Moskito, Mr. Sax, and Space Mama provide battles that require skill and strategy.
Heroic Journey and Memorable Ending
Rayman’s adventure culminates when he confronts Mr. Dark at the Candy Chateau. With the help of the Electoons and the power of Betilla, Rayman defeats the villain, rescues Protoon, and restores peace to the world. Finally, he and his friends enjoy a happy holiday, a sweet and meaningful ending to their arduous journey.
