#Rayman legends switch review full

What keeps Legends fresh is the variety in levels. Crafting enough of them to span a 12-hour campaign is a feat and one that Ubisoft has managed to pull off. Crafting levels that can be challenging, but also fair, is tough. Each area not only contains a unique look and feel, but also tests the players reflexes with pinpoint timing, and fantastic design. I never thought four simple actions could be stretched so far.

The simple concepts found in Rayman Legends are stretched out in an amazing array of variety. More times than not, Globox would make bad decisions or jumps, forcing me to repeat the section over.ДЄcross the board the rest of the platforming will feel familiar to anyone who played Origins. I actually prefer not having the second-screen option. On the other consoles this is achieved with a button press. This consists of slicing barriers or tickling enemies so a free-moving Globox can progress through a level. On the Wii U (and Vita) players are often treated to a second-screen experience. While the Wii U version remains largely the same, the other versions have made strides to work the Gamepad-only gameplay into the mix. Originally designed as a Wii U exclusive, this latest entry has seen its share of delays. I never found much reason to care, and cut scenes only served to distract from the action. Rayman and his cohorts must save the day. Teensies are being held captive by Dark Teensies and the world is being swallowed in a nightmare. There is a story here, but not one that folks will be writing about. I could not stop going back to these levels even after completing the entire campaign, and that speaks volumes.

Combine that with its insanely fun boss battles, cooperative play and dynamic mechanics, and Legends could easily be this generationвЂ™s finest in the genre.
