Amazing Learning Games With Rayman was released as Rayman Junior in the United Kingdom, and re-released as Rayman Learning Centre in 1999. The game looks and plays exactly like the original Rayman game, except that the difficulty level has been reduced and the game is designed to be educational. Rayman can still punch enemies, grab onto ledges and use his helicopter hair. The game asks questions and Rayman has to choose which route to take. For instance, Rayman might be told to look for things that you find in the home, or given a math equation to solve. If he takes the route associated with the incorrect answer, he is killed instantly! There are still power-ups and Tings and everything you would expect in a Rayman game. Be sure to go into DEMO\RAYEDU and run SNDDEMO.BAT or you won't be able to hear the voice instructions! Only the first two levels are playable in the shareware version. Downloads

Rayman is an unusual platform game originally released Atari Jaguar and DOS. Initially Rayman can only jump and avoid enemies, but he quickly acquires useful abilities such as his telescopic punching fist, the ability to grab onto ledges, and helicopter hair, which allows him to levitate for a few seconds during a jump. The telescopic punching fist needs some explanation: Rayman fights by literally throwing his fist! It returns to him, of course, and causes damage while going and returning. The longer he winds up, the farther his fist goes. The worlds are full of power-ups such as "Tings": blue orbs which give Rayman an extra life when he collects 100 of them. Rayman already has the telescopic punching fist in the shareware demo, but not the highly useful helicopter hair. The original demo was released in a self-extracting zip file which must be run with the "-d" argument in order to extract the necessary directory tree. Ubisoft later re-released the demo in a Win32 self-extracting archive which resolves that problem. There are 6 worlds in this game, with only one level from the first world playable in the shareware version.
