'''The Top of the World''' is a location in ''[[Rayman 2]]''. It follows [[the Precipice]] and is the thirteenth level in the original and Dreamcast versions of the game, but it does not appear in the PlayStation version and ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', although in the latter its two segments are still present, in the form of the [[Roller Coaster Challenge]] [[Ly's Challenges|minigame]] and the second half of [[the Echoing Caves]].

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.

===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 throne and only getting up when [[Rayman]] unblocks the door.
