The game presents a top-down view with the crocodile moving to the top of the screen. The Rabbid is always walking around the moon, when you press '5' he jumps to the nearest moon in line.Ĭroc Rider: The Rabbid is on a life saver pulled by a crocodile. Rabbid On The Moon: In this one you have to jump from moon to moon avoiding mouse traps and falling into the deep space. Your job is to activate the chimney at the right moments sending the Rabbid through the air and avoiding the incoming missiles. On top of the locomotive's chimney there is a Rabbid. Wild Wild Rabbid: You are in control of a locomotive that moves forward automatically. You use the '5' key to avoid deadly obstacles. Your job is to launch gum bubbles to the falling Rabbids in order to avoid them from hitting the floor. By playing the mini-games, you collect golden carrots that you can use to unlock the other mini-games in any order you want.īand Of Rabbids: In this mini-game you and other Rabbids are in free fall. The game starts with only one mini-game unlocked. This is a one-button game, all mini-games are played using only the '5' key. The mini-games are in some way based on movies and TV series like Band of Rabbids (Band of Brothers) or Rabbid Jones (Indiana Jones). The shrinking budgets and declining production values are beginning to show through.Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party is a collection of twelve mini-games starring the Raving Rabbids (spin-off to Ubisoft's Rayman series). The grid in adventure mode is particularly lackluster. The 3D character models look good, but many of the 2D elements are extremely basic. The opening FMV looks great, but the same one plays after every mini-game, so it quickly becomes annoying. The presentation is inconsistent as well. The few good ones are ruined by the fact that they just go on for way too long. The quality of the mini-games varies, but even the best of them are only decent. There are also multiplayer variations on many of these games through DS download play, which does make them a little more bearable. You're lucky if you make it to the end of those without passing out. Others have you blowing in the mic to fill a meter, or to fill up balloons. I actually enjoyed this one at first, but by the time I passed the four and a half minute mark, I couldn't wait for it to end. In one of the other games, you have to tap icons in rhythm to licensed songs the Rabbids are singing. There are a few that consist of you moving the stylus in a circle over and over, occasionally reversing directions. Many of the mini-games end up falling flat. Their inclusion can't carry a game like it did before. The humor is just as absurd as past titles, which is good, but by now the novelty of the Rabbids is gone and their inherent comic effect is dwindling. The title may have been more enjoyable if it adopted more of a Warioware, "micro-game", style. Most of these games would have worked better if they were made substantially shorter. Some of them even drag on for minutes at a time. Something that is fun for 20 seconds can be made tedious when it's stretched out to a minute and a half or more. One of the biggest problems with the games is that they go on for too long. There are around 40 mini-games total, few of which you would want to play more than once, and all of which you will be forced to. Gaining moves is supposed to act as some sort of motivation, but it comes across as a lazy, yet frustratingly effective method of artificially lengthening play time After each turn in adventure mode you choose a "channel," which is really just a set of unrelated mini-games, from which an event is chosen at random. In the end, this mode functions as nothing more than a way to force players into mini-games. Once all the Rabbids are removed, a new "channel" is unlocked which opens up a new set of mini-games and starts the process all over again. You gain moves by playing mini-games, which will begin after every turn. Each time you get Rayman to the TV, ten Rabbids are removed, and the TV icon moves to another location. Listed on the top screen is a number representing the amount of Rabbids in your TV. Your goal is to move the Rayman icon to the television before the Rabbid get's there. When you begin this mode, you will be taken to a six by seven square grid with icons showing Rayman, a Rabbid, and a television. The meat of the game is the inaptly titled "adventure" mode. The premise is simple: Rabbids have invaded Rayman's television, and the only way to liberate his set from the mischievous creatures is by playing, what else, random mini-games.
