Rayman 2: The Great Escape, known as Rayman Kaizokusen Kara no Dasshutsu! (レイマン 海賊船からの脱出！) in Japan, is the sequel to Rayman, brought to several video game platforms including the Sega Dreamcast in 2000. Developed and published by Ubisoft, it was the first 3D Rayman game, and follows Rayman as he liberates all his friends from a gang of evil pirates.
Contents
Story
The Glade of Dreams was at peace until a band of evil robot pirates, led by the extremely evil Admiral Razorbeard, take over Rayman's world, and to make things worse, smash the Heart of the World into 1000 pieces (Yellow Lums)!! Rayman is captured, too, and thrown in a cell on the Pirate Prison Ship. Globox, Rayman's best friend, is sent by Ly the Fairy to get captured and give Rayman a silver Lum that regenerates his fist. Afterwards, Rayman is able to shoot glowing orbs from his fist that attacks enemies. Globox gives Rayman more Lums along the way to make his fist stronger. Rayman can also obtain a golden fist that doubles the power of his fist.
Rayman sets out to collect the 1000 Lums, and retrieve the 4 Masks of Polokus, to awaken him so that he can help Rayman save the Glade of Dreams and defeat Razorbeard.
Gameplay
Departing from the 2D gameplay of the original game, Rayman 2 is a 3D platformer through linear levels. Rayman can freely move around with the Analog Stick, jump with 
, and shoot using his Magic Fist with 
. His helicopter ability from the first game is available by default and can be turned on and off with while in mid-air. In some bodies of water, Rayman can swim underwater, but only for a limited time. By receiving Silver Lums from Ly the Fairy and Globox over the course of the story, Rayman can unlock additional abilities.
To progress through the game, Rayman must collect the Yellow Lums scattered across the world and break open cages to set characters free. The final cage in a level contains a Teensie that will help him exit the level and move on to the next. Levels can feature sections in which Rayman must combat one or more Robo-Pirates in order to proceed. During combat, 
can be held down to lock on to a single enemy and strafe, making combat easier. 
and 
can be used to rotate the camera and get a view of Rayman's surroundings, though an icon will buzz on the screen if the camera cannot be moved.
Items
| Yellow Lum | |
|---|---|
The 1,000 fragments of the Heart of the World, broken by the Pirates. These are required to open levels in the Isle of Doors, and will also give Rayman knowledge of the world which is accessed by holding  on the D-Pad.
| |
| Super Yellow Lum | |
| A larger Yellow Lum worth five Yellow Lums. | |
| Red Lum | |
| Found in the open or within possession of the Pirates, these refill Rayman's life bar. Some of them form a chain that must be collected within a time limit or they will vanish. | |
| Blue Lum | |
| Oxygen-rich Lums found in underwater sections that will refill Rayman's air gauge when collected. | |
| Green Lum | |
| These Lums act as checkpoints when collected. If Rayman dies, he will respawn from the last Green Lum's location. | |
| Purple Lum | |
| Rayman can swing from these Lums by shooting at them once he has earned the ability to do so. | |
| Silver Lum | |
| Special Lums created by Ly the Fairy, which will restore Rayman's lost abilities or upgrade his existing ones. | |
| Cage | |
| These contain Lums or other characters that Rayman must set free. For every 10th cage broken, Rayman's life bar will be permanently extended. | |
| Power Fist | |
| Triples the power of Rayman's shots. If he gets hit or dies three times, the Power Fist will be lost. | |
| Glob Crystal | |
| These unlock mini-games when collected and brought to Globox Village. | |
| Keg | |
| These explosive kegs can be picked up and thrown at enemies or certain obstacles to destroy them. | |
| Plum | |
| These can be thrown at enemies or used as transport across rivers of lava. | |
| Four Masks of Polokus | |
| Found within Sanctuaries, Rayman is required to collect these as part of the story in order to awaken Polokus. |
Levels
| The Woods of Light | |
|---|---|
|
Yellow Lums: 5 Cages: 2 | |
| Rayman lands in these woods after escaping the Prison Ship at the start of the game, separated from Globox. Here, he first meets a group of Teensies who argue over who the king is, introducing him to the Isle of Doors. If Rayman comes back to this level after acquiring the ability to swing from Purple Lums, he can find Globox Village, a location exclusive to the Dreamcast version. | |
| The Fairy Glade | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 7 | |
| In this level, Rayman must cross piranha-infested waters and infiltrate a Robo-Pirate stronghold in order to rescue Ly the Fairy, who is held prisoner in an electric forcefield that must be turned off by destroying the machine that powers it. After being set free, Ly will explain Polokus and the four masks to Rayman, and will give him a Silver Lum that allows him to swing from Purple Lums.
The first Glob Crystal can be found at the end of the polluted chasm. | |
| The Marshes of Awakening | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 5 | |
| In this level, Rayman has to set free a watersnake named Ssssam, who doesn't know anything about the four masks of Polokus but informs him that Globox has been recaptured by the Pirates, and offers him a waterski ride across the marshes. While riding Ssssam, the player has to avoid Zombie Chickens and piranhas while collecting Yellow Lums and smashing into cages directly.
The entrance to the Cave of Bad Dreams is located at the beginning of this level, and Rayman must return here after meeting Clark in the Menhir Hills to enter it. | |
| The Bayou | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 7 | |
| The level opens with a cutscene where Admiral Razorbeard, leader of the Robo-Pirates, eats a Yellow Lum, reducing the maximum Yellow Lum count to 999. Throughout the level, Rayman will be pursued by warships that will attempt to bombard him, and he must avoid them by crossing the murky green waters, jumping across barrels to proceed.
If Rayman has at least 60 Yellow Lums, he can access the Walk of Life at the beginning of this level. | |
| The Walk of Life | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 0 | |
| One of two optional levels in which Rayman races with Ly through a forest filled with bouncing cobwebs, collapsing bridges and climbing vines, collecting Yellow Lums along the way. Ly simply acts as a guide through the course - the real obstacle of the level is the time limit, which can be extended by walking over the golden lily pads. If Rayman makes it to the end in time, Ly will permanently extend his life bar as a reward.
This level is first accessed within the Bayou. After the first visit, it can be accessed directly from the Isle of Doors. | |
| The Sanctuary of Water and Ice | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 2 | |
| The first time Rayman enters this level, he is sent to the Chamber of the Teensies, and will require 100 Yellow Lums to open the stone door leading to this level.
Arriving on the beach of an island, Rayman will need to open the door leading into the Sanctuary itself by bringing two Magic Spheres to the triangular bases of their colour. Upon entering the Sanctuary, he will slide down a water-coated slide amidst a star-filled abyss, jumping over bottomless pits and grabbing Yellow Lums along the way. At the end of the slide, Rayman encounters the Sanctuary's guardian, Axel, who will attack by dropping icicles, and must be defeated by swinging across a series of Purple Lums and attacking the icicle above his head. Once Axel is defeated, Rayman can reach the end of the level and collect the first mask of Polokus. The second Glob Crystal is found in a hidden cave in the first section. | |
| The Menhir Hills | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 8 | |
| This level serves as an introduction to the walking shells, which are explosive rocket-like robots that Rayman can ride on after tiring them out, which he will need to do to reach the Military Academy. There, Rayman will meet Clark, who has accidentally swallowed a robot part and will need the Elixir of Life from the Cave of Bad Dreams to recover. After returning to this level with the elixir, Clark will be able to break down walls and allow Rayman to continue to a second walking shell-riding section in which he must avoid crashing into the many menhirs that litter the tunnels and forest. | |
| The Cave of Bad Dreams | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 0 | |
| Located in the Marshes of Awakening, this level is where the monsters of Polokus' nightmares are locked away by its guardian, Jano, who will not allow Rayman entry until he knows the name of the place, which he learns from Clark in the Menhir Hills. Upon reaching a certain point in the level, Jano will give chase to Rayman down a slide, followed by Rayman using skulls created by Jano to cross large chasms.
At the end of the level is a treasure chamber, and Rayman is given a choice to take all the treasure for himself or reject it. Choosing "I want the treasure!" results in a fake ending where Rayman becomes obese and sleeps on a deserted island before returning to the decision. Choosing "No treasure for me!" will return him to the Marshes of Awakening, with Jano giving him the Elixir of Life as a reward for not being greedy. | |
| The Canopy | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 4 | |
| This level opens with Rayman being chased by a giant spider. Though it can be defeated, the player can simply avoid it. After the spider chase, the player will find Globox held prisoner. Once he is freed, Globox will accompany Rayman throughout the level and help deactivate laser barriers by performing rain dances, but will hide in fear if there are any Robo-Pirates nearby. At a certain point, Globox will give Rayman another Silver Lum entrusted to him by Ly, which will give Rayman the ability to charge his shots. At the end of the level, he will leave to return to his wife, Uglette. | |
| Whale Bay | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 4 | |
| Carmen the Whale has been captured by the Robo-Pirates, and Rayman must make his way through the Pirates' fortress to rescue her. Once she has been freed, she will provide air bubbles that Rayman can use to refill his air while swimming deep into the underwater caverns, though piranhas will attempt to pop the bubbles. Carmen will eventually lead Rayman to a sunken wreck, which he can swim inside to reach the level's exit.
The third Glob Crystal can be found in a hidden cave nearby where Carmen and the piranhas stop. | |
| The Sanctuary of Stone and Fire | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 8 | |
| The first time Rayman enters this level, he is sent to the Chamber of the Teensies, and will require 300 Yellow Lums to open the stone door leading to this level.
Much of this level revolves around navigating a network of canyons filled with lava. To cross the lava, Rayman must pluck the plums and then ride them across the rivers, using his Magic Fist to propel himself across. Upon entering the Sanctuary itself, Rayman will have to go through more plum-riding, as well as puzzles that require him to carry Magic Spheres across obstacle courses in order to awaken the Sanctuary's guardian, Umber. Unlike Axel, Umber is not hostile to Rayman, and simply carries Rayman across a pool of lava to the second mask. This level also features a second temple that does not contain the second mask and is therefore completely optional, though it instead contains additional Yellow Lums and cages, necessitating a visit should the player have intentions on achieving 100% completion. | |
| The Echoing Caves | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 5 | |
| In the first part of the level, Rayman must make his away around a forest stronghold and activate four switches that will unlock the door necessary to move forward. The status of the switches will be displayed on the HUD, though they can be activated in any order. Following this section, Rayman will navigate the underground tunnels where he will need to ignite a keg next to flaming torches to fly with them.
This level features a hole that leads to an extra area in the Fairy Glade, where he can find the fourth Glob Crystal. | |
| The Precipice | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 6 | |
| Much of this level involves Rayman running across collapsing bridges through the canyons while under pursuit by a warship that is bombarding him with cannonballs, helicopter bombs and red walking shells. Another section also sees Rayman climbing up a tower that is sinking into water. At the end of the level, Rayman will have to glide down to a pier leading to an area where he must defeat a Ninja Henchman to proceed. The fifth Glob Crystal is hidden away in this area. | |
| The Top of the World | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 2 | |
| This is one of the shortest levels in the game, featuring only two sections, the first of which is a ride on a speeding chair to enter a Robo-Pirate base, avoiding obstacles and collecting Yellow Lums along the way, while the second section has Rayman make his way around the crate-filled storage areas and find the Teensie in order to exit the level. | |
| The Sanctuary of Rock and Lava | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 7 | |
| This Sanctuary is so large that it spans two levels, with the first level starting in a swampy area that spans its entire first section, ending with Rayman entering the Sanctuary itself. The second section sees Rayman going through the Sanctuary's corridors, which in addition to lava are also overgrowing with brambles that he must ride past on floating flowers.
If Rayman has collected enough Yellow Lums, he can access the Walk of Power at the beginning of this level. | |
| The Walk of Power | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 0 | |
| The second of two optional levels in which Rayman races with Ly across a series of rivers with waterfalls and lily pads, collecting Yellow Lums along the way. Ly simply acts as a guide through the course - the real obstacle of the level is the time limit, which can be extended by walking over the golden lily pads. If Rayman makes it to the end in time, Ly will give him three Power Fists as a reward.
This level is first accessed within the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava. After the first visit, it can be accessed directly from the Isle of Doors. | |
| Beneath the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 4 | |
| The first time Rayman enters this level, he is sent to the Chamber of the Teensies, and will require 475 Yellow Lums to open the stone door leading to this level.
This level is a continuation of the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava. As soon as the level begins, Ly will appear and give Rayman a Silver Lum that upgrades his helicopter ability, allowing him to fly freely by holding To defeat Foutch, the player will need to run away and avoid his columns and rows of fire, and use the cobwebs to bounce up to the stalactites and drop them on his head. After three hits, Foutch is defeated, and Rayman can use the Purple Lums to leave the boss arena and acquire the third mask. | |
| Tomb of the Ancients | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 + 1 Cages: 6 | |
| This level has Rayman make his way through this tomb, learning that Clark had been captured by the Robo-Pirates and brought to the Technical Check-up. The first section has Rayman making his way through the graveyards of the tomb while avoiding spiders and piranhas, while the second section has Rayman riding barrels and flying kegs through the murky tunnels. Upon reaching the Technical Check-up, Rayman must fight Clark, who is being controlled by a device attached to his back, by activating a laser to trip him up so he can attack the controlling device.
This level features the 1,000th Yellow Lum, which can be accessed by using the helicopter ability to fly into a hidden hole in the wall at the end of the first section, leading to a secret passage filled with Henchmen 800s. This Lum does not count towards the Lum count for this level and will not raise the maximum Yellow Lum count back to 1,000 when collected, but is still required for 100% completion. | |
| The Iron Mountains | |
|
Yellow Lums: 50 Cages: 3 | |
| The first time Rayman enters this level, he is sent to the Chamber of the Teensies, and will require 550 Yellow Lums to open the stone door leading to this level.
The level first sees Rayman going through a Pirates' stronghold amidst a swamp, eventually leading to a hot air balloon that takes him to the Reformatory for Disturbing Children. This reformatory features a giant Robot Dinosaur that Rayman must avoid as he infiltrates it and use a walking shell to activate switches to set the Baby Globoxes free. Finally, Rayman must hijack a warship and use it to rescue the remaining Baby Globoxes from the Pirate Mines and reunite them with Uglette. After doing so, one of the Baby Globoxes will give Rayman the final mask, which it found in the mines. The final Glob Crystal can be found at the part before the river that leads to the hot air balloon. | |
| The Prison Ship | |
|
Yellow Lums: 94 Cages: 0 | |
| Rayman finally returns to the Robo-Pirates' colossal flying ship, the Buccaneer, to rescue all of the slaves on board the ship. The first two sections of the level consist of Rayman riding a slide while hitting switches to deactivate deadly hazards that block his progression. Upon entering the ship itself, Rayman will need to hijack a flying shell and ride it throughout the ship, gathering up Yellow Lums along the way. Upon reaching the end of the level, Rayman will free all the slaves, telling them to get off the ship while he looks for Globox. | |
| The Crow's Nest | |
|
Yellow Lums: 0 Cages: 0 | |
| The final level of the game, which solely consists of the final battle with Admiral Razorbeard. Razorbeard uses Globox to bait Rayman to the arena, and will begin the fight piloting a giant mech known as the Grolgoth. The first section of the fight has the Grolgoth shoot bombs that will trip it up if Rayman shoots them and sends them back, as well as attempting to squash Rayman and shoot energy from its feet. After being knocked down three times, the Grolgoth will attempt to squash Rayman, only to destroy the arena and begin the second phase.
After being saved by Ly, Rayman must ride a flying shell and collect an energy sphere in the lava-filled tunnels, then shoot at the Grolgoth, which is now holding itself up on two adjacent posts. Each energy sphere allows Rayman to shoot the Grolgoth five times, and he will have to find another to keep attacking until the Grolgoth is eventually destroyed. |
