Complete Rayman Playthrough (DOS)

Complete playthrough of Rayman (1995), back before Ubi Soft milked the franchise to death. The playthrough lists all cages, most lives and magicians in the levels.
Recorded on DosBox, there are some cycle speedup issues, that is DosBox, not my recording.
Video split in two, first is getting power ups and second is the actual levels with the cages.

I remember I was playing this game while 9/11 happened. I was like 7 years old. My older sister told me I had to come to the tv because there was something very bad and spectacular going on live on tv. I was like: "wtf I'm playing Rayman leave me alone"

*PERFECT!* This person beat the game without any deaths!

[@inityo]

I really liked how he looked when he died

[@shalug13]

I don't think it was his first time playing it. He must have had some experience. I own the PS game and the PC game and the cage locations are very different. I have only owned the PC one for a week and I didn't know where most of the cages were before watching this. He got close to dying a few times like in Mosquito's nest when the mosquito chased him and the two blue enemies on the ledges. 14:33 or there abouts. That was always difficult for me because you have to jump at the right time to not get hit and consequently jump backwards into the mosquito and die. Still it was very well done. It makes me jealous and not want to play the game anymore but still well done.

[@shalug13]

I loved Rayman as a kid in the late 90s. We never had much money and I wanted it so badly. I think I got it as a birthday or Christmas gift. One of the best and most memorable experiences. Later on I was lucky enough to get Rayman 2 and Rayman 3. The former of which I could never finish because the last level was so hard and I was scared of the Knaaren in Rayman 3 but I still managed to finish it and I loved the atmosphere and the music of the game. Especially Summit beyond the clouds and I loved the swimming. Thanks for bringing back joy to others.

[@sialia385]

I really liked this playthrough because it shows getting the powers first and leaving all the cages behind, for later to come back and get all the cages simultaneously. So no matter what you need help with it's easy to find in the video. Choosing the route to get the powers first was really smart, I'm gonna do that from now on!

DOS version includes some of the character voices (Albeit a pitch deeper, I think there's something up with the audio) 2:10 Betilla's dialogue sound is straight up missing? 7:48 Tarayzan 42:47 The Musician 3:29:08 Rayman? (I dimly recall if you leave him to stand idle you'll hear him say 'hello there') 3:36:45 Joe (+maybe the firefly?) 3:57:20 Mr Dark laughs 4:00:54 The ending with generic unseen npc voices I'm guessing it was made especially for the PC version or they just sound so daft that they were left out for PS1.

[@i486DX66]

The best platform game ever. Also part of my childhood. Graphics were far better than any other 2D platform game from the 90s.

[@Tonycaveman]

This game has diabolical fucking difficulty. I played it when I was very young and never even got close to finishing it... Recently the game popped into my mind and I thought to download it again thinking "I'm older, I shouldn't find this as hard as I did when I was a wee lad". Fuck that. What an exercise in frustration.

Awesome playthrough of Rayman 1 for PC! The PC version sure is a great port of the game, although I never understood why they changed the cage placements. Have you also considered doing complete playthroughs on Rayman Gold and Rayman By His Fans for the PC? They're both great 2D Rayman classics, as well as the original game! Plus, the franchise wasn't really milked to death. UbiSoft just made 3 spin off games with the Rabbids that eventually turned into its own series, then made 2 fresh new decent 2D Rayman games afterwards, but then started doing nothing with the franchise but make a smartphone game to celebrate Rayman's 20th Anniversary and are just producing extra little bits of content for it.

[@markwiering]

Stop at Rayman 2? What about stopping at Rayman 3? Rayman 3 is my favourite Rayman game. Rayman 2 was good too, though, although I strongly dislike all 2D variants of Rayman (the first Rayman, Rayman Origins, Rayman Legends etcetera).

[@iSquishy89]

Ryan Good You need to mount the soundtrack to a drive (D for example). And the RAYMAN.BAT file to another drive (C for example). Then run RAYMAN.BAT.
