Although he (or she?) has no arms and no legs, Rayman is one of the most recognizable videogame characters around the world. The fearless and friendly Rayman heroically arrives on the Nintendo DS to defeat the pirate terror that has enslaved his world. Players assume the role of Rayman and travel through magical worlds with surreal landscapes and gorgeous eye-popping 3D graphics. Race and battle through 45 intricately designed areas. Explore waterfalls, deep sea caves, and pirate hideouts rendered in rich 3D. Monitor your progress, track your lums, and keep an eye on Rayman's health on the interactive bottom screen of your DS. Run, jump, ski, swim, and fly with your helicopter hair. Fly rockets, ride whirlwinds, and surf lava flows on the road to victory. [Ubisoft]

As always, the Rayman universe is endlessly entertaining and the gameplay model diverse and bursting with creativity. [May 2005, p.72]

"Super Mario 64 DS" set a high bar for DS-ified N64 classics; sadly, Rayman DS doesn't alter the gameplay, include new worlds, or throw in any surprises. [May 2005, p.90]

Compared to "Super Mario 64 DS," this is a shoddy port that doesn't scratch the surface of the DS's potential. [May 2005, p.134]

Being a Rayman fans it's frustrating to play a game that's so close to the original but yet so far away. Since it doesn't use the touch screen in any innovative ways it really doesn't make much sense for this game to be on this system.
