It’s almost a shame there aren't more Murfy-specific levels in the grand total of 123 stages, but the sweetest moments of Rayman Legends are even more fleeting.

Globox will sniff out hidden secrets and captured Teensies as long as you create a path for him to find them, and Murfy is quick to catch on to your respective intentions, but when there’s so much for Murfy to do, the Wii U version not only shows off the game’s wealth of ideas more effectively than other platforms, but it also creates that much-needed variety to help keep the game feeling fresh and exciting. We tried out both versions, but as much as we liked keeping control of Rayman’s actions, tapping a button to activate Murfy just didn’t create quite the same level of immersion as poking and prodding the touchscreen. Murfy can either expose enemy weak spots by tickling them or he can hoist them into the air for a good smacking
RAYMAN LEGENDS REVIEW PS4 PC
On PC and other consoles, players keep control of Rayman, but can tap a button to get an AI-controlled Murfy to do their bidding. On the Wii U, players swap Rayman for Murfy and use the touchscreen to guide an AI-controlled Globox through each level. Of course, asymmetric gameplay doesn’t quite work when there’s only one player, but Ancel’s team has been careful to make each of its 14 Murfy-essential levels as solo-friendly as possible. Whatever the task, Murfy is the string holding each level together. One of our favourite Murfy levels involved eating our way to victory by scoffing tunnels of cake, but he can also be used for more practical tasks like moving platforms across fiery death pits or rotating spiky circular mazes using the GamePad’s gyro sensors. That could mean fending off dragons with a catapult while everyone makes their way to safety, or tickling heavily-armoured enemies so Rayman and company can smack them in the face. Using the touchscreen, GamePad players control Murfy, a flying green frog who can interact with the world in a way other players can’t. Rayman Legends is best enjoyed with five players on Wii U, but playing solo is just as fun
