It was released on November 18, 2008 in North America, November 13, 2008 in Europe, November 14, 2008 Australia, January 22, 2009 in Japan, and July 17, 2009 in South Korea. It is the first game to feature Wii balance board compatibility.

Story[]

Rayman is running away from eight Rabbids (possibly because they found out he wasn't a Rabbid in Rayman Raving Rabbids 2). Rayman seeks refuge on a farmhouse but the Rabbids are struck by lightning and are sucked into Rayman's TV set, turned into Cartoon Rabbids, they decide to invade each channel. Rayman is forced to watch the Rabbids' programming. The player must play several minigames which parody popular movies and TV shows such as Star Wars, Godzilla, Prison Break, etc... As the player progresses through the game, cutscenes are shown to narrate the game's story. Rayman is being annoyed by the Rabbids' TV antics and keeps making small cracks on the TV. In the end, Rayman is trying to watch a football game, but the Rabbids keep changing the channels, which causes Rayman to throw his shoes at the TV, causing it to break and releasing the Rabbids. The Rabbids continue to chase Rayman, except for one of them, who stays in Rayman's house and gets a vacuum cleaner stuck to his ears as the credits roll. The DS version's story is a bit different is that instead of the Rabbids taking over Rayman's TV, its instead TV's around the world and Rayman finds his way into the TV world and try to catch all 5 Rabbids.

Characters[]

Rayman - The main protagonist (non-playable, playable in the DS version)

Gameplay & Modes[]

Up to four players can play the game. In order to beat the game, the player will go into Solo Mode and have to beat up to 7 minigames in each day of the week, which drives Rayman each day and forces him to make cracks on his TV. If the player manage to beat all of the minigames on Sunday, their will be able to play the bonus game: Megaclicker, which is a big collection of adverts that end quicker. There is a Party Mode which involves 2-8 players to play random minigames and whoever wins a minigame gets to choose, and after beating a select few minigames, there's little microgames like one similar to Frogger and one which to point at the weather icon, if the person beats it, gets to choose the next minigame. If the player need practicing on some of the minigames, you could go try out the training mode which you could also play with friends. Also during some minigames, adverts will show up which are like little microgames which consist on flicking the Wii remote to throw a mint in a Rabbid's mouth or shaking the Wii remote to roll pizza dough, who ever wins the advert first gets a boost, easier difficulty, more points, or screen wipes depending on the minigame.

The DS version has a different Solo Mode which is a board game against the player (Rayman) and the Rabbids racing for the Television and for the player to get rid of all the Rabbids in the TV. If the player lands on the Television spot, 10 Rabbids get removed from the TV and if the Rabbids lands on the Television spot, the Television will teleport somewhere else. There are also Green Question spaces that does random things like gets rid of 3 10Th Grade Evil Heroes, 3 Rabbids go into the TV, Rayman gets an extra space, Rabbid gets an extra space, the blue walls which blocks you will be removed, Rayman gets teleported to the TV, Rabbid gets teleported to the TV, Rayman gets an extra turn and the Rabbid gets an extra turn. Once both turns are over the minigames will show how many spaces you go, you fill it up to 1-4 bars which the game either ends once you get 4 bars or if you run out of time to get 4 bars. There is also a score mode which you have minutes to get the best score on a minigame.
