It’s more than 10 years since Rayman Legends, the most recent full title in the Rayman series,❀ launched on PC and consoles. While there is no sign of a new video game release, fans of the series, of which there are still many, will be able to get their fi𓄧ll of the platformer later this year, albeit in analog form.

Ubisoft has teamed up with Flyos Games to launch the project. Despite only launching on September 17, the crowdfunded project has am🎃assed more than $200,000 in pledges, smashing its initial target of $37,117. The project is set to run until October 8 so is like✅ly to pick up a lot more backers in the meantime.

The designers describe the game as a race that pits one to four players as they attempt to evade dangers and rescue Teensies throughout the Glade of Dreams. The standard game includes four-player mats, a deck of 54 action cards, and four stunning vinyl player figures as well🌼 as a host of tokens and counters.

There is an expansion and several addons, that aren’t sold separately, which take th🎉e player count up to six people and include upgraded wooden tokens as well as improved skins for those who like to plus up their board games (who doesn’t?).

The original Rayman series of games were hugely popular platformers and even led to the launch of spin-off titles featuring the game’s antagonists, the Rabbids. And while Ubisoft has continued to develop Rabbids games, at least for Switch owners in China, there has b𝓀een no sign that the developers are planning any new titles in the main series.
