The gameplay in ''Rayman Junior'' is somewhat simplified specially for the young player. The number of levels in the game has been reduced to just twelve, two per world, and each one covers an educational topic, such as phonics, adding and subtracting, number recognition etc.  The questions asked come in three difficulties, which may or may not be selectable depending on the version.

Each level starts with [[the Magician]] giving [[Rayman]] an overview on what he has to do. Then the player will see [[the Magician]]'s hat at various points of the level where he asks you a question when you walk past it. You then have three paths to choose from, the right path being the right answer to the question.  A life is lost if the wrong path is taken. After the level is completed, the player is then sent to a bonus stage and given a time limit in which he or she have to accomplish whatever challenge [[the Magician]] has now set for him or her. Once all of these levels are cleared, [[Rayman]] can then have access to [[Mr Dark]]'s hideout.

The game contains a new world map, and aside of the levels, there is an extra one called [[Betilla's Garden]], which the player uses to practice. This is the first time in which [[Betilla the Fairy]] speaks. It also has a new title theme, and the level music is extended.
