In their path of carnage, they've exploded the Heart of the World and scattered the planet's energy source: 1,000 Yellow Lums. Rayman lies powerless aboard the pirates' prison ship, drained of his magical abilities in the aftermath of the Heart of the World's destruction. But when all seems lost, Ly the Fairy sends Rayman an ally... Now, Rayman must make his escape from the prison ship, restore the Heart of the World, and put an end to the pirates' reign of terror! In this iconic 3D action platformer released on the Nintendo 64 system in 1999, race and battle across intricately designed areas, from rain forests to narrow canyon passes, in search of four magical masks to awaken the ancient spirit Polokus.
