The globe's peak is a high-tech [[Robo-Pirate army|Robo-Pirate]] fortress located far from civilization. The only way to reach the hidden fort is via a [[Chair Ride|speeding chair]]. The fortress itself is intensely patrolled solely by [[Barrel Pirate|Barrel Pirates]], though [[Ape Pirate|Ape Pirates]] and small outposts guard the entrance. The fortress is characterized by its many red carpet-filled hallways.
The globe's peak is a high-tech [[Robo-Pirate]] fortress located far from civilization. The only way to reach the hidden fort is via a speeding chair. The fortress itself is intensely patrolled solely by [[Barrel Pirate]]s, though [[Gorilla Pirate]]s and small outposts guard the entrance. The fortress is characterized by its many red carpet-filled hallways. With only two segments, one of which is just the chair ride, it is one of the shortest levels in the game.

The Top of the World was originally called "The Roof of the World".<ref>This name comes from [[Rayman 2 (early production)|early demos]] of the game.</ref>

===Phase 2===
===Phase 2===
As [[Rayman]] arrives in the Top of the World's [[Robo-Pirate]] installation, an alarm begins to sound. The [[Barrel Pirate]]s patrolling the corridors are on the alert, and soon Rayman must defeat several of them. After passing through many crate-filled storage areas, he discovers that the level's [[Teensie]] [[cage]] is nowhere near the exit. He must backtrack to search out the Teensie, which is hidden in a secret passageway; after freeing the Teensie, Rayman must escort him to the end of the level. The Teensie is not found in a cage, instead relaxing on a chair and only getting up when Rayman unblocks the door.
