The Fancy Pants Adventures

Bright, upbeat tone

A fast, fluid 2D platformer starring the stick-figure hero Mr. Fancy Pants, built around momentum, slides and jumps. Its hand-drawn look and lively levels turn the rescue of his sister from a pirate into a breezy romp.

Unruly Heroes

Distinctive, stylised art style

A hand-drawn 2D platform adventure loosely based on the Chinese Journey to the West legend. Four heroes switch between combat, acrobatic platforming and puzzles, with co-op support.

Rayman Legends

Distinctive, stylised art style

A wonderfully fluid 2D platformer with a hand-drawn look, where jumps and attacks feel almost choreographed. The music-driven rhythm levels are especially famous, and it is great fun in co-op too.

Rayman Origins

Distinctive, stylised art style

A gorgeously hand-drawn 2D platformer bursting with zany humor, tight jumping challenges and frantic treasure-chase levels, playable with up to four friends in chaotic local co-op. It gets seriously demanding in its later stages.

Rayman Fiesta Run

Distinctive, stylised art style

A colorful auto-running platformer with the Rayman Legends look: you run, jump, punch and swim in rhythm through 75 short, inventive levels full of music and slapstick.

Rayman Jungle Run

Distinctive, stylised art style

A fast auto-running platformer in the look of Rayman Origins: Rayman sprints through vibrant jungle levels while you time jumps, punches and glides precisely. Easy to pick up, with tougher bonus levels for skilled players.

Rayman

Distinctive, stylised art style

A classic 2D platformer starring the limbless Rayman, who hovers with his helicopter hair and throws fists through lush hand-drawn, colorful worlds. Precise jumping and a fairly steep difficulty define the experience.

Disney Illusion Island

Bright, upbeat tone

A charming cartoon-styled Metroidvania where Mickey, Donald, Goofy and Minnie explore the island of Monoth. It's accessible and playable in up to four-player co-op, with smooth platforming and plenty of humor.
