Rayman is a platform game series created by Michel Ancel for Ubisoft. Since the release of Rayman in 1995, the series has produced multiple games across multiple platforms.
The series is set in a fantastical, magical world which features a wide range of environments that are very often based on certain themes, such as "the Eraser Plains", a landscape made entirely of stationery, or "the Band Land", another one made of musical instruments, or even "Olympus Maximus/Mount Elysium" and "Fiesta De Los Muertos/Mystic Mesa", which are based respectively on Ancient Greece's mythology and Mexican tradition. The core games of the series are platformers, but there are several spin-off titles in other genres. The protagonist is Rayman, a magical limbless creature, being renowned for his courage and determination who, with the help of his friends, must save his world from various villains.
