The first game in the series is titled ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' and was released in 2006. It features [[Rayman]] as the main protagonist and is the first game in the [[Rayman (series)|Rayman series]] to have a party games focus. The game was originally released for the newly released Nintendo Wii and had most of the minigames centered around the Wii Remote. The game was later ported to Windows PC, Sony PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 with the controls being adapted for analog control and mouse movement.

=== [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (DS)|''Rayman Raving Rabbids'' (DS)]] ===

In 2007 a sequel was released for the Nintendo Wii under the name ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids 2]]''. The game takes place soon after the events of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' where [[Rayman]] learns that the [[Rabbid]]s are planning to take over [[Earth]]. He attempts to infiltrate their base by dressing up as one and imitating their behavior, while following them all over the world and collecting as much information as possible to use as a warning to the [[Earth]]'s inhabitants. This is the first game in the series to not take place in [[the Glade of Dreams]], and the first one to be entirely focused on 4-player minigames. The game doesn't have a defined ending.

=== [[Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 (DS)|''Rayman Raving Rabbids 2'' (DS)]] ===

A [[Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 (DS)|Nintendo DS version]] was released in 2007. Similarly to the console version it focuses entirely on minigames. Most minigames this time around require the usage of the stylus and take advantage of the dual screens. The game also features a local multiplayer mode where up to four players can connect their systems using WiFi.

==''[[Rabbids Go Home]]''==

On the outskirts of a bustling city set in Earth, a group of Rabbids hang around in a junkyard, bored of partying, and want to go home. The problem is, they don't even know where they come from, so they cast the moon as their new home. They notice the piles of junk around them, and decide that by making one pile bigger with even more junk, they could reach it. Two Rabbids then take a shopping trolley and search around for things to toss onto the pile, before setting off to the city to look for more junk. This is the game that separated the Rayman series from the Rabbids series, as it takes place in a more realistic and civilized universe. This is also the first home-console Rabbids game to not be focused on minigames. The player takes control of two rabbids who run a shopping trolley collecting all the things they can in a similar way to ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katamari_Damacy Katamari Damacy]''.

If the last level is beaten, the game shows the ending, in which the Rabbid who stands on a globe to see how far the moon is attempts to hug the moon, but realizes that they do not have enough stuff. Then, bombs appear on the pile, in which the pile blows up, sending the stuff back to the humans. The bright side: When the bombs blew up, the Rabbids made it to the moon. The game then shows the credits.

==''[[Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time]]''==

Set in the year 2012 as the default year, the Rabbids discover a Time Washing Machine. In the intro to the game, a Rabbid is traveling through time, from a prehistoric setting, to ancient Egypt, and other time periods. The Time Washing Machine gets damaged in traveling. The Rabbid travels in time to a history museum. He and other Rabbids access time periods through pictures of the event. As they alter time, they create different scenarios, such as giant Rabbids and the Earth under water and in space. At the end of the game, the Golden Time Washing Machine is acessed. The Rabbid travels to future, into the year of 4096 and ends up in a large facility. He explores the facility and finds some pants on the wire of one of the giant robots and pulls the pants off, making the robot shoot a laser and open up a door. Professor Barranco (from Rayman Raving Rabbids 2) is drilling Rabbids in using time machines to conquer history. The main Rabbid pulls the plug on one of the machines, sending him and the machines into time, making a very fast version of the game intro. This sends the Rabbid back to the history museum.

Raving Rabbids Alive and Kicking has the player using the Kinect to play the role of the humans, trying to defend their city from the destructive Rabbids. The game includes various minigames that can be controlled by the player's body using the peripheral's built-in camera. It can also be played by up to 4 players.

==''[[Rabbids Land]]''==

Still on Earth, the Rabbids find themselves taking over an amusement park. Two Rabbids are attempting to go on one of the rides, but are thrown out by an unseen person. One of the Rabbids contact the Rabbid spaceship through an iPhone-like device. He tries to call the Rabbid in the spaceship, but the Rabbid in the spaceship is too busy playing with the Wii U Gamepad. Unaware of the consequences, the Rabbid in the spaceship continues to play with the Gamepad, which was actually controlling the whole ship. The Rabbid turns the Gamepad upside down, which causes the the ship to land in the amusement park.

The gameplay is similar to the Mario Party series. It features a board game-like scenario. The player will have to roll a dice with the Wii U Gamepad and depending on the number the dice lands, the Rabbid will move to the corresponding square. These squares trigger a different feature and can be easily told apart just by looking at the symbol drawn on the square. Your primary goal is to win the board game by winning trophies, which can be collected by playing and winning minigames. Only two players can play at a time. Once a player has collected all trophies needed, you need to get to the center. Once you get to the center, the game is over and the player can win prizes.
