Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $4.49. That was June 2024. It has been discounted 87 times in the 13 years tracked here, typically at 75 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.

Value puts it in the top 7 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, The Adventure Pals ($14.99, scores 70) beats it on value, while it beats Rayman® Origins ($19.99, scores 56).

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 37 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written January 2024 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 61 percent of the 1,646 reviews written there were positive, against 90 percent overall, and those are 14 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 10 hours. Doing everything runs 32, 3.2 times as long.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 10 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

With Rayman Legends Retold looming on the horizon, I decided it was high time I tackled the original title, which had been gathering dust in my Steam library. Marking my maiden foray into Rayman (if I don't count the Netflix show where he snorts cocaine and eats sushi served over an antro cow lady), I plugged in my controller to ascertain whether the hype was justified, given the immense acclaim showered upon both...

This is one of the best 2D platformers of all time... BUT Ubisoft keeps pushing updates to try and force us to use UPlay to play it. YEARS after the last ACTUAL update they're still trying to push UPlay. Which is made even worse by the fact that the original release DID NOT HAVE UPLAY. They're just trying to screw over existing owners to funnel them towards their crappy bloatware storefront.
