Released for the Game Boy Advance in 2003, Rayman 3 is a platformer developed by Ubisoft.
It landed about 2 years into the GBA's life. Other notable GBA releases from 2003 include Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and Sonic Battle.
It is part of the Rayman series; on the GBA you can also try Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge, Rayman and Rayman Raving Rabbids. The series also appears on other systems with Rayman 2: The Great Escape (N64) and Rayman 2: The Great Escape (PS1). Ubisoft also made TMNT, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow for the GBA.
Rayman 3 supports up to 4 players, whether that means taking turns or going head-to-head.
Pick it if…
- you want to run, jump and explore
- you have time for an evening or two (roughly 1–6 hours to see it through)
- you have a friend to play against
- you've played the GBA hits and want something less obvious
Maybe skip it if…
- you get frustrated by precise jumps and limited lives
What playing Rayman 3 is like
Platformers are all about movement: running, jumping and timing your way across levels full of gaps, enemies and secrets. The best ones feel great to control within seconds and then slowly teach you to master every leap.
Tip for newcomers: Retro platformers often have limited lives and few checkpoints. Learn one level at a time, look for hidden 1-ups, and don't be shy about using a save feature when it is available.
