'''''Rabbids Go Home''''' is an [[action-adventure game|action-adventure]] video game developed and published by [[Ubisoft]] for the [[Wii]] and [[Nintendo DS]]. The game was released in North America on November 1, 2009, in Australia on November 5, 2009, and in Europe on November 6, 2009. A modified, shorter version of the game was ported to [[Microsoft Windows]] and released in Russia and Poland.
'''''Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time''''' is a [[Party game|party]] video game developed and published by [[Ubisoft]] for the [[Wii]]. It was released in North America on November 21, 2010, in Europe on November 26, 2010, in Australia on November 25, 2010 and in Japan on January 27, 2011.<ref name="ignpress">{{Cite web|year=2010|title=Ubisoft Reveals Raving Rabbids Travel In Time|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/2010/06/29/ubisoft-reveals-raving-rabbids-travel-in-time?amp=1|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120305235752/http://wii.ign.com/articles/110/1102693p1.html|archive-date=March 5, 2012|access-date=2010-06-29|work=ign.com}}</ref> It is the fifth installment in the ''[[Raving Rabbids|Rabbids]]'' series and, unlike the previous entry, ''[[Rabbids Go Home]]'', it returns to the party game genre.


==Plot summary==
''Rabbids Go Home'' is the fourth installment in the ''[[Rabbids]]'' series of video games and is the first title in the series without Rayman. The game's plot centers on the efforts of the titular Rabbids to collect as many human objects as they can and create a huge pile high enough to reach the Moon, all the while avoiding the extermination attempts by the "Verminators", who wish to gain back the stuff the Rabbids have stolen.
===Wii version===
The Rabbids use a [[Time travel|time machine]] (which looks like a [[washing machine]]) to go through different times to change [[human history]]<ref>{{Cite web|title=Rabbids Website|url=http://rabbids.ubi.com/bwaaah/en-US/games/wii/raving_rabbids_in_time/index.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150427041132/http://rabbids.ubi.com/bwaaah/en-US/games/wii/raving_rabbids_in_time/index.aspx|archive-date=April 27, 2015}}</ref> According to the trailer, first they go to [[Stone Age|The Prehistory]] in 10,000 BC and help a [[caveman]] discover fire, but end up giving him a [[lighter]]. Then they go to middle-aged [[Ancient Egypt]] in 2500 BC to disturb work on the [[Great Sphinx of Giza|Sphinx]] and make the nose fall off. And last, they go to [[Middle Ages]] in 520 but they end up underground holding down the legendary sword [[Excalibur]] when Arthur tries to pull it off the stone, but he gives up and leaves. When the Rabbids leave, Grannie ended up pulling the sword instead of Arthur.<ref>{{Citation |title=Raving Rabbids Travel in Time - E3 trailer [Europe] | date=14 June 2010 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGNUBw-GNPs |access-date=2023-07-02 |language=en}}</ref><ref>[http://www.facebook.com/posted.php?id=11083361227 Rabbids fan page in Facebook]</ref>


In the intro for the game, a Rabbid is seen inside the washing machine/time machine altering prehistoric times, ancient Egypt, Middle Ages, [[Vienna]] in 1803 [[Ludwig van Beethoven|Beethoven]]'s composition of the [[Symphony No. 5 (Beethoven)|Fifth Symphony]] and [[Street punk|Street Punk]] in 1980s a [[Punk subculture|Punk Subculture]], before smashing a vase in the modern day. The player then teams up with the Rabbid to mess with history (by accessing paintings related to each minigame) in order to repair the time machine (which was damaged on the trips to the aforementioned time periods). Upon altering time and accessing the golden washing machine, the Rabbid and the player are warped forward to the year 4096 A.D where Professor Barranco 3 (the ultra-intelligent Rabbid commander from ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids 2]]'') is drilling various Rabbids to use time machines to take absolute control over the [[space-time continuum]]. However, the player's Rabbid literally pulls the plug on one of the machines and causes all the time machines to disappear. This action inadvertently initiates a time paradox (which results in a sped-up version of the game intro) before ending up back in the museum.
The game received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the game's humor, soundtrack and accessible gameplay, though some noted the game's low difficulty.<ref>{{Cite web|url = https://www.metacritic.com/game/rabbids-go-home/critic-reviews/?platform=wii|title = Rabbids Go Home|website = [[Metacritic]]|access-date = 2018-04-26|archive-date = 2018-05-12|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180512130423/http://www.metacritic.com/game/wii/rabbids-go-home|url-status = live}}</ref> The reviews for the Nintendo DS version were mixed.

===Nintendo 3DS version===
The game's premise would later be loosely adapted in the second season of [[Rabbids Invasion]], which features many of the Rabbids failed attempts at reaching the Moon.
Taking place after the events of the [[Wii]] version of Raving Rabbids Travel In Time, the Rabbids are playing in the museum, when the same Time Machine appears, this time containing a Rabbid with a duck ring. After the Rabbids fight for the duck ring, the player and the Rabbid get warped to the past, in which the player once again teams up with the Rabbid to get back to the Present while making mess of history again.
The game's ending shows the Rabbid the player teamed up with finding a refrigerator, in which the Rabbid attempts to use it as a Time Machine, but he only put some stuff on himself, and is zapped by a lighting spark, and the credits roll.


==Setting==
==Gameplay (Wii version)==
The setting is a history [[museum]]. From there, the Rabbids can play [[quiz]], [[singing]], and [[Dance|dancing]] games. They can also customize their Rabbids with [[Historical figure|historical]] [[costume]]s. The Rabbids can also go into museum's main areas: the Bouncearium, Shootarium, Flyarium, Runarium and Hookarium; to ruin history with their Time Washing Machine.
The player controls a team of two Rabbids on a rampage pushing a shopping cart.<ref name="LoveRabbids">{{cite web|first=Matt|last=Casamassina|date=May 5, 2009|title=Why You'll Love ''Rabbids Go Home'' - Wii feature - at IGN|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/2009/05/05/why-youll-love-rabbids-go-home?amp=1|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090509065806/http://wii.ign.com/articles/979/979811p1.html|archive-date=May 9, 2009|access-date=December 29, 2009|publisher=IGN}}</ref> The goal of the game is to go to human places (including but not limited to malls, hospitals and airports) to collect as much stuff as possible during each level and help the Rabbids build a pile high enough to reach the Moon. In each level, there is enough stuff to grow the pile by 1,000 feet. The minimum requirement for completing a level is to collect the "Xtra Large Stuff" and carry it to the toilet at the end of the level. The more items the player collects, the more items are unlocked for the Rabbids (such as figurines, tattoos, tools, accessories and challenges) depending on the score.<ref name="RabbidsHowToPlay">{{cite book |title=Rabbids Go Home instruction booklet |year=2009 |publisher=Ubisoft |page=4 }}</ref> The Xtra Large Stuff is located either in the middle or end of a level. Some Xtra Large items affect the gameplay. For example, a jet engine will propel the shopping cart to three times its normal speed, while a sick patient's quarantine bed allows the cart to float and glide.<ref name="LoveRabbids"/> Placed throughout the levels are "Collector Rabbids", with which the player can leave any stuff they have collected up to that point. The [[Health (game terminology)|health]] of the Rabbids (described in-game as "ideas") is measured in light bulbs, which fry out when the Rabbids take damage and get collected to refill. At the start of the game, the Rabbids will have three light bulbs, displayed at the bottom-left corner of the screen. Later in the game, the player can earn up to 6 light bulbs. If all of the light bulbs burn out or the player falls into the void, the Rabbids will get set back to an automated checkpoint.


==Gameplay==
The player can move the shopping cart with the [[Nunchuk (controller)|Nunchuk]] and accelerate using the A button. The Rabbids' main mode of offense is a loud vocalization called the "Bwaaaah! Attack", which can be triggered by shaking the Wii Remote. This attack can break certain objects, stun enemies like guard dogs, scare humans and strip them of their clothing. As the player advances through the game, the Verminators and robots appear, and humans will start wearing soundproof helmets to protect themselves from the "Bwaaaah! Attack". The player can perform another technique named the "Super Boost", which is initiated when the shopping cart turns and drifts to the point where blue sparks fly from under the cart's wheels. When the player presses the A button and turns, the cart will skid. When blue sparks are visible, the player may press the B button, and the "Super Boost" will be performed. This ability allows the player to knock down piles of crates, strip certain enemies faster and leap over obstacles through the use of springboards. The player can also launch the "Cannonball Rabbid", a Rabbid living inside the player's Wii Remote, by aiming with the Wii Remote and pressing the Z button on the Nunchuk attachment. This attack can strip certain enemies and open certain grates that are marked.<ref name="RabbidsHowToControl">{{cite book |title=Rabbids Go Home instruction booklet |year=2009 |publisher=Ubisoft |page=5 }}</ref>
Gameplay revolves around several minigames for up to four players (with computer AI controlling unused players) set during various segments of time. Some levels feature co-operative play, such as a level where two players are tethered by toilet paper. Ubisoft has stated this game intends to be 'waggle-free', and rather than having players shake the controller as hard as they can, the designers hoped to create mini-games with more depth.<ref>{{Cite web

</ref>


Each minigame is set in one of five different sections of a history [[museum]]: the Bouncearium, involving maneuvering the Rabbids through side-scrolling platformer minigames; the Shootarium, using first-person shooting style minigames; the Flyarium, allowing Rabbids to fly and compete against one another in races and scavenger hunts; the Runarium, which has two teams race or collect items; and the Hookarium, which is themed around the use of the WiiMotion Plus accessory as a fishing rod.
At several points during the game, a Rabbid is "drawn" into the Wii Remote itself, and can be thrown and bounced around while "inside" the remote as the screen displays an apparent interior view of the remote.


==Plot==
===Worlds===
{{Div col|colwidth=22em}}
After invading Earth and partying intensely, the Rabbids are ready to get back home. Due to having a short attention span, they decide to go to the Moon, which they think is a giant [[light bulb]]. They come up with a plan to collect all of the human stuff they can find, put it into a giant pile and climb to the Moon. They gather the human objects and fit them all into one shopping cart, transfer all of the stuff they have found through the sewage system via a series of toilets and add the stuff to their growing pile, which becomes higher as the game progresses. Eventually, the humans revolt against the Rabbids and become "Verminators" in a bid to exterminate the Rabbids and retrieve their stolen stuff.<ref name="LoveRabbids"/><ref>{{cite book |title=Rabbids Go Home instruction booklet |year=2009 |publisher=Ubisoft |page=3 }}</ref>


====Bouncearium====
At the end of the game, the Rabbids are still not able to reach the Moon, even after gathering almost everything from the city. The humans bombard the pile with time-delay bombs which explode on the pile, causing the pile to fly up into space. As a result, the XL junk falls from the sky and the humans panic. After all of the stuff has stopped falling, the humans are overjoyed to have all of their stuff back. In space, the Rabbids celebrate their accomplishment of finally reaching the Moon, albeit caught in the Moon's gravitational orbit.

==Development==
====Shootarium====
*[[Georgia Gold Rush]] in 1799
''Rabbids Go Home'' underwent three years of development before its release. A coherent and authentic storyline was needed to keep the Rabbids fresh and conserve their variety in the context of an adventure game. The development team evaluated the Rabbids as representing "emotions pushed to the extreme" and created the human characters to be the exact opposite: "[They] mull over all their decisions, their emotions in-check. Their organs have atrophied. They have nearly forgotten that they have a body or a heart, and can barely handle those." Jacques Exertier stated that the meeting between the two opposing characters is an allegory of the "internal debates we have with ourselves each time we make a decision" and that much of the comedic situations in the game stem from the meeting of the two archetypes. The setting of ''Rabbids Go Home'' was visually inspired by the period between 1945 and 1975, during which there was an explosion in mass consumption. The visuals were based on simple colors and geometric shapes rather than photorealism to create a caricaturized image of its "uptight humans with their sterile places and normalized urban planning". Ubisoft Montpellier created a [[Proprietary software|proprietary]] game engine, LyN, specifically for and alongside ''Rabbids Go Home''.<ref name="LoveRabbids"/> The game was announced on April 9, 2009.<ref name="IGNAnnounce">{{cite web|author=IGN Staff|date=April 9, 2009|title=Ubisoft Announces ''Rabbids Go Home'' - Wii story - at IGN|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/2009/04/09/ubisoft-announces-rabbids-go-home?amp=1|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090412130042/http://wii.ign.com/articles/971/971455p1.html|archive-date=April 12, 2009|access-date=April 9, 2009|publisher=IGN}}</ref> On November 17, 2009, Ubisoft denied a rumor that the game would be recalled from United Kingdom shops due to "inappropriate language".<ref>{{cite web|first=Stephen|last=Daultrey|date=November 17, 2009|title=Wii News: Ubisoft deny ''Rabbids'' recall rumour - ComputerAndVideoGames.com|url=http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=227488|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091123012708/http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=227488|archive-date=November 23, 2009|access-date=December 29, 2009|publisher=[[Computer and Video Games]]}}</ref> As a result of this, the game has been re-rated a 12 in Europe.

==Music==
====Flyarium====

==Nintendo 3DS version==
| title6 = Bătută la Clarinet
A [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of this game was released as a [[platform game]] in 2011. This version is titled as '''''Rabbids: Travel in Time 3D''''' in North America, and simply '''''Rabbids 3D''''' in Europe. It has only 4 historical periods containing 60 maps.
| length6 = 1:24

| title7 = Bubamara
The player must progress in bonus-filled levels, fight some enemies and do jumps or slippery slopes for dynamic action. The advantage of 3D in Rabbids 3D is to provide an immediate gaming pleasure without complication or innovation. There are many checkpoints, and lives and energy points (rolls of toilet paper, spheres of force) are generously distributed, so the player is never discouraged by the difficulties present in the game.
| length7 = 2:52

| title8 = Horă Moldoveneasca de Joc
The title was later re-released in a compilation pack called ''Rayman & Rabbids Family Pack'', alongside ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' and ''[[Rabbids Rumble]]''.

Taking place after the events of the [[Wii]] version of Raving Rabbids Travel In Time, the Rabbids are playing in the museum, when the same Time Machine appears, this time containing a Rabbid with a duck ring. After the Rabbids fight for the duck ring, the player and the Rabbid get warped to the past, in which the player once again teams up with the Rabbid to get back to the Present while making mess of history again. The game's ending shows the Rabbid the player teamed up with finding a refrigerator, in which the Rabbid attempts to use it as a Time Machine, but he only put some stuff on himself, and is zapped by a lighting spark, and the credits roll.

The rest of you, should you be able to engage your inner child, could well find a big old slice of the fun pie cooling on your windowsill. |archive-date=December 30, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091230222848/http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/rabbids-go-home-review |url-status=live }}</ref> Annette Gonzalez of ''[[Game Informer]]'' said that the animations were "laugh-out-loud", but some of the gameplay sequences were "repetitive".<ref name="GIWII">{{cite web |url=http://gameinformer.com/games/rabbids_go_home/b/wii/archive/2009/11/03/review.aspx |title=Rabbids Ditch Minigames For A Fun Item-collecting Adventure - ''Rabbids Go Home'' - Nintendo Wii |first=Annette |last=Gonzalez |date=November 3, 2009 |publisher=Game Informer |access-date=December 30, 2009 |archive-date=January 8, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100108092842/http://gameinformer.com/games/rabbids_go_home/b/wii/archive/2009/11/03/review.aspx |url-status=live }}</ref> Matt Leone of [[1UP.com]] remarked that the licensed soundtrack and customization features added enough personality to make the game worth playing.<ref name="1UPWII"/> ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' concluded that while the game had "difficulty issues", it was "a definite step in the right direction for the Rabbids, and I hope to see them continue this way."<ref name="NPWII">{{cite magazine |year=2009 |title=''Rabbids Go Home'' |magazine=Nintendo Power |issue=Holiday 2009 |pages=88 |quote=Difficulty issues aside, this is a definite step in the right direction for the Rabbids, and I hope to see them continue this way.}}</ref> Tom McShea of [[GameSpot]] commented positively on the character creator, unlockable content and cutscenes, but said that the early levels were too easy and simple and the game became repetitive.<ref name="GSpotWII">{{cite web |url=http://www.gamespot.com/wii/adventure/rabbidsgohome/review.html |title=''Rabbids Go Home'' Review for Wii - GameSpot |first=Tom |last=McShea |date=November 10, 2009 |publisher=GameSpot |access-date=December 30, 2009 |quote=This slow-starting platformer is simple at times but builds up to a goofy good time. |archive-date=November 16, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091116052943/http://www.gamespot.com/wii/adventure/rabbidsgohome/review.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time is a party video game developed and published by Ubisoft for the Wii. It was released in North America on November 21, 2010, in Europe on November 26, 2010, in Australia on November 25, 2010 and in Japan on January 27, 2011.[1] It is the fifth installment in the Rabbids series and, unlike the previous entry, Rabbids Go Home, it returns to the party game genre.

Plot summary

Wii version

The Rabbids use a time machine (which looks like a washing machine) to go through different times to change human history[2] According to the trailer, first they go to The Prehistory in 10,000 BC and help a caveman discover fire, but end up giving him a lighter. Then they go to middle-aged Ancient Egypt in 2500 BC to disturb work on the Sphinx and make the nose fall off. And last, they go to Middle Ages in 520 but they end up underground holding down the legendary sword Excalibur when Arthur tries to pull it off the stone, but he gives up and leaves. When the Rabbids leave, Grannie ended up pulling the sword instead of Arthur.[3][4]

In the intro for the game, a Rabbid is seen inside the washing machine/time machine altering prehistoric times, ancient Egypt, Middle Ages, Vienna in 1803 Beethoven's composition of the Fifth Symphony and Street Punk in 1980s a Punk Subculture, before smashing a vase in the modern day. The player then teams up with the Rabbid to mess with history (by accessing paintings related to each minigame) in order to repair the time machine (which was damaged on the trips to the aforementioned time periods). Upon altering time and accessing the golden washing machine, the Rabbid and the player are warped forward to the year 4096 A.D where Professor Barranco 3 (the ultra-intelligent Rabbid commander from Rayman Raving Rabbids 2) is drilling various Rabbids to use time machines to take absolute control over the space-time continuum. However, the player's Rabbid literally pulls the plug on one of the machines and causes all the time machines to disappear. This action inadvertently initiates a time paradox (which results in a sped-up version of the game intro) before ending up back in the museum.

Nintendo 3DS version

Taking place after the events of the Wii version of Raving Rabbids Travel In Time, the Rabbids are playing in the museum, when the same Time Machine appears, this time containing a Rabbid with a duck ring. After the Rabbids fight for the duck ring, the player and the Rabbid get warped to the past, in which the player once again teams up with the Rabbid to get back to the Present while making mess of history again. The game's ending shows the Rabbid the player teamed up with finding a refrigerator, in which the Rabbid attempts to use it as a Time Machine, but he only put some stuff on himself, and is zapped by a lighting spark, and the credits roll.

Setting

The setting is a history museum. From there, the Rabbids can play quiz, singing, and dancing games. They can also customize their Rabbids with historical costumes. The Rabbids can also go into museum's main areas: the Bouncearium, Shootarium, Flyarium, Runarium and Hookarium; to ruin history with their Time Washing Machine.

Gameplay

Gameplay revolves around several minigames for up to four players (with computer AI controlling unused players) set during various segments of time. Some levels feature co-operative play, such as a level where two players are tethered by toilet paper. Ubisoft has stated this game intends to be 'waggle-free', and rather than having players shake the controller as hard as they can, the designers hoped to create mini-games with more depth.[5]

Each minigame is set in one of five different sections of a history museum: the Bouncearium, involving maneuvering the Rabbids through side-scrolling platformer minigames; the Shootarium, using first-person shooting style minigames; the Flyarium, allowing Rabbids to fly and compete against one another in races and scavenger hunts; the Runarium, which has two teams race or collect items; and the Hookarium, which is themed around the use of the WiiMotion Plus accessory as a fishing rod.

Nintendo 3DS version

A Nintendo 3DS version of this game was released as a platform game in 2011. This version is titled as Rabbids: Travel in Time 3D in North America, and simply Rabbids 3D in Europe. It has only 4 historical periods containing 60 maps.

The player must progress in bonus-filled levels, fight some enemies and do jumps or slippery slopes for dynamic action. The advantage of 3D in Rabbids 3D is to provide an immediate gaming pleasure without complication or innovation. There are many checkpoints, and lives and energy points (rolls of toilet paper, spheres of force) are generously distributed, so the player is never discouraged by the difficulties present in the game.

The title was later re-released in a compilation pack called Rayman & Rabbids Family Pack, alongside Rayman Origins and Rabbids Rumble. The pack was released exclusively in Europe on October 2, 2014.[6]

In return, the game received mixed to negative reviews, with the criticism focused in the lack of originality, low difficulty and repetitive action.

Plot

Taking place after the events of the Wii version of Raving Rabbids Travel In Time, the Rabbids are playing in the museum, when the same Time Machine appears, this time containing a Rabbid with a duck ring. After the Rabbids fight for the duck ring, the player and the Rabbid get warped to the past, in which the player once again teams up with the Rabbid to get back to the Present while making mess of history again. The game's ending shows the Rabbid the player teamed up with finding a refrigerator, in which the Rabbid attempts to use it as a Time Machine, but he only put some stuff on himself, and is zapped by a lighting spark, and the credits roll.

Reception

Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time was met with mixed reviews. Nintendo Power gave the game a 6.5, while VideoGamer gave it a score of 8/10.[20] Official Nintendo Magazine criticized the game, giving it a 40/100. IGN reviewed the game, praising the graphics and the museum hub included, and gave the game a 7/10.[21] Other websites, such as Nintendo Life and GameStyle, gave it the same score as well.[22] TheBitBlock.com was more positive, giving the game 8/10, praising the inclusion of online play, graphics, and multiplayer, but criticized the disappointing use of WiiMotionPlus, the shooting games, and the historical theme of the game. TheBitBlock.com called it "a party game that offers up content that you've never seen before in the party genre." The game was not well received by fans of the series and was criticized for the return to the party roots.[citation needed]
