Question 21: Given the following games:
- Rayman, Rayman Designer, Rayman 2, Rayman M, Rayman 3
and the following cheat code strings:
- CARNIVAL, GOLDENS, GOTHERE, RAYWIZ, REVERSE
Match the cheat code to the game and explain what it does.

[Hunchman801]

Hell, I think I've only got one of those...

[RayGamer99]

The only one I know for sure is that CARNIVAL unlocks all the costumes in Rayman M. I know RAYWIZ (not to be confused with the character from Rayman Adventures ) does something in Rayman 1, but I don’t remember what. Gonna guess it unlocks all levels or frees all the Electoons? Anyhow, I’ll guess REVERSE switches your controls in Rayman Designer, GOLDENS gives you a Power Fist in Rayman 2, and GOTHERE sends you somewhere in Rayman 3.

Honestly, I’m clueless here aside from the first one.

[The Jonster]

Ok, I'll give this a shot.

So I know typing GOTHERE in Rayman 2 will let you warp to any level in the Hall of Doors. REVERSE in Rayman 3 mirrors the layout of levels I think. CARNIVAL, as explained above, unlocks all the costumes in Rayman M.

Not sure about the other 2. RAYWIZ gives you some items in Rayman 1, I just don't remember what it was. And GOLDENS.....well the only thing I can think of is it gives you golden fists......in Rayman Designer???????? (it's the only game I haven't used).

OK, I'll give you the point, because you are correct on every item.

As for RAYWIZ (forgive me for deliberately choosing the more obscure cheat of Rayman 1, otherwise it would be too easy) - you are correct again that it gives you some items. Do you want to try to guess which ones? Hint: "WIZ" can be seen to stand for "Wizard".

[The Jonster]

Wizard, eh....so I'll go with the tiny blue orb fairies Tings then.

[dr_st]

That's right! 10 of them, as a matter a fact! So that no matter how many you have to start, one application of the cheat is sufficient to let you into the bonus level.

Of all these codes, "REVERSE" has to be the most bizarre of all. I don't recall another game which had this feature to on-the-fly mirror the entire world geometry. Although, TBH, it probably just mirrors the final render stage and silently swaps the left and right controls.

Question 22: Which Rayman 1 level is called the same in (almost) every language the game has been translated to?

[PluMGMK]

Yeah, Tings are actually called "WIZ" internally in the game, so it makes sense that "RAYWIZ" would bestow a nice even quantity of them!

As for the question, it has to be Allegro Presto!

[RayGamer99]

Eat at Joe’s?

[lyndo64]

Moskito's Nest

Of course! I suppose one doesn't need to explain why.

Question 23: There are different ways one can group the levels of Rayman 2. One possibility would be the following:

1. The Fairy Glade, The Marshes of Awakening, The Bayou, The Sanctuary of Water and Ice, The Cave of Bad Dreams
2. The Menhir Hills, The Canopy, Whale Bay, The Sanctuary of Stone and Fire, Tomb of the Ancients
3. The Echoing Caves, The Precipice, The Sanctuary of Rock and Lava, Beneath the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava, The Iron Mountains, The Prison Ship, Crow's Nest

In what way does the above grouping make sense?

[The Jonster]

The levels are grouped based on which of Rayman Revolution’s hubs they reside in.

- Group 1 represents the Minisaurus Plains.
- Group 2 represents Globox’s House.
- Group 3 represents Rainbow Creek.

We could also group The Walk of Life, The Walk of Power, and The Top of the World together for being part of Ly’s minigames. That leaves the Woods of Light, which isn’t anywhere on this list since it doesn’t belong to any of these.

[dr_st]

That's right! It's interesting how the hubs are mostly in the original order, with some outliers, like Tomb of the Ancients. Never mind the missing levels like The Top of the World, which was broken into parts of other levels.

Question 24: How many Wanna Kick Rayman videos must you buy to get one free?

[RayGamer99]

Uhh… 20?

[PluMGMK]

I think it was 537? There being 538 in total…

[Greengoop]

578?

[The Jonster]

You actually have to buy 546, then you get the 547th for free.

[dr_st]

The Jonster is correct again, and moves to the brink of victory!
However, due to the consecutive points rule, we are guaranteed at least two more questions.

Question 25: Name three different retail bundles/compilations that Rayman Origins was part of.
The Jonster got 2 points in a row and should skip this question.

[PluMGMK]

Shoot, I knew I had the number wrong! My memory isn't what it used to be, apparently it can now arbitrarily subtract nine from three-digit figures
