'Rayman Legends (2013)' is a 2D platformer featuring Ubisoft's long-standing, limbless hero. It has a wonderfully bright, hand-drawn aesthetic and is suitable for all ages. The gameplay is deceptively simple but incredibly satisfying. It flows together nicely and, especially in the musical levels, gives you a feeling of free-flowing empowerment. There's a lot to do here, with 'daily challenges' providing value far after you've finished the main campaign. That campaign is comprised of several distinct worlds, each of which bring their own enemies, mechanics and locations. Some levels are fairly challenging, too. Just because it looks friendly doesn't mean it isn't serious. It's a hugely enjoyable and charming experience throughout. It's the sort of platformer they don't really make any more. 8/10
