Rayman Raving Rabbids Game

Rayman Raving Rabbids, known in French as Rayman contre les Lapins Crétins (literally meaning "Rayman against the Moronic Rabbits"), is a spinoff in the Rayman series released by the company Ubisoft as a Wii launch title. The game consists of 75minigames. The game is primarily designed with the Wii Remote in mind, but is also available on Game Boy Advance, PlayStation 2,Microsoft Windows, Nintendo DS, and Xbox 360. Releases for PlayStation 3 and PSP of the game were planned, but were later cancelled for unknown reasons, making it the only game in the series that was released for the PlayStation 2.

Ubisoft released a sequel to the game, Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, in November 2007, and released the third game in the series,Rayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party, in November 2008. The fourth game in the series, Rabbids Go Home, was released in 2009, though only on the Wii and DS systems and a fifth game, Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time, was released in 2010. A sixth game, Raving Rabbids: Alive & Kicking, was released in 2011 only for Xbox 360 (which requires Kinect) and the seventh game, Rabbids Land, was released as a Wii U exclusive game on November 2012. As of April 2014, the series had sold over 14 million units worldwide

The game features two different modes of play - 'Story mode' (or adventure mode) and 'Score mode'. In story mode the game follows fifteen days of Rayman's imprisonment by the Rabbids. Each day, Rayman (Raymondo) must complete at least three trials, followed by one special “boss trial”, such as a first-person rail shooter using plungers, or a racing game in which the player controls a warthog and uses a flyswatter as a riding crop. Completing trials earns Rayman various costumes and matching music, including Gangsta, Raymaninho (a portmanteau of the title character's name and football star Ronaldinho), Disco, Gothic, Caramba, Rock'n'Roll, Granny, DeeJay and Bunny. Trial completion also earns plungers and after accumulating enough, Rayman builds a ladder up the edge of hisjail cell and escapes to freedom. In Score mode, the player can repeat past trials in an attempt to improve their score or as a multiplayer party game.
