They’re the same map to me

I suppose I can give one final hint. The inconsistency/error on the N64 map is also present in some other materials distributed at the time.

Dude I just realized what it was lol, doesn't matter now though

OK, well, this turned out to be harder than I expected.

The N64 map of Rayman 2 had a mix up in the names of 2 of the Sanctaries - calling them "The Sanctuary of Lava and Fire" and "The Sanctuary of Rock and Stone". This mistake made it also to early strategy guides. However, the PC map had the names matching the game.

Question 14: In which game in the series and under what circumstances can you find characters like Henchman 803 and Henchman 1007?

Can't you find them in the Xbox/Gamcube versions of Rayman Arena?

Ahem. There is a reason I underlined "and under what circumstances".

Ah. I figured you meant "and under what circumstances" as what version

Isn’t it the name of the henchman 800 and 1000 in a different language in rayman M?

Yes, it is! At least in the PC version (I haven't tested others), if you set the language to any of the 8 languages other than English, the names will range from 801/1001 to 808/1008. A very bizarre glitch, and one that was corrected in Rayman Arena (and maybe some later RM releases, not sure).

Since you also got the point for the last question before the unanswered one, I'm going to ask that you skip the upcoming one.

Question 14: At the beginning of The Bog of Murk (Rayman 3), Rayman crashes into Begoniax's outhouse, surprising her. There are at least six distinct objects that are located inside, and can be observed after Begoniax leaves. Name as many of these objects as you can.
One answer per participant, and the point goes to the most accurate one, so answer carefully!
Greengoop got 2 points in a row and should skip this question.

A toilet and a toilet paper roll

Oh wow, so that's where our founder's name comes from! I never knew that! (Not sure if my version does that, I don't recall such a thing...)

I think it was more of a joke that’s it’s Hunch instead of hench and 801 instead of 800, rather than it being a reference to that

The toilet, the paper roll, the red gem, books with a heart drawn (I don't know if those things are books, it seems so), a candle and a red carpet.

Wow that’s way more than I remembered

Well I've recently replayed Rayman 3, it shouldn't be difficult to remember that

You only really get to see it for around 5 second tho

Hunchman is from the Rayman M intro, e.g., here ~1:01m mark.

A perfect answer if I have ever seen one.

Question 15: Rayman Redemption is a remake of Rayman 1, but in this aspect it is actually like Rayman 2, with an option to make it like Rayman 3. Explain.

Can you explain what you mean by this?

This probably a horrible answer but here I go:

The game has some Rayman 2 sound effects, and you can switch to the Rayman 3 costumes.

Not really, you can just simply turn to the outhouse and examine the stuff in there. Unless you’re talking about the cutscene, that is, but that’s longer than 5 seconds.
