'''Bongo Hills''' (French: '''''La Butte aux Bongos''''' – '''''The Butte of Bongos''''') is the first level of [[Band Land]], the second world of [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. It is one of the longest levels in the game, containing six parts. It is also the first level in the PC version and its ports where the player can break all 6 [[cage]]s without backtracking.

==Part 1==

[[File:Ciel1PC.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|The very first scenery of [[Band Land]]]]

[[File:Ciel1PS.png|thumb|320px|class=sprite|The same level in the PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and Atari Jaguar versions]]

In the PlayStation, Sega Saturn and Atari Jaguar versions, this part is a typical [[Band Land]] stage, with numerous secret passageways.

In the PC version it is replaced by a totally different one, which is a transition between [[the Dream Forest]] and [[Band Land]]. It features a unique scenery, with xylophone bridges over a quiet water. As [[Rayman]] climbs up, he will find himself in a new world.

[[Rayman (Nintendo DSi)|The DSi port]] uses this variant while ''[[Rayman Advance]]'' drops this part completely, starting Bongo Hills at part 2.

==Part 2==

Phase 2 introduces [[Rayman]] and the player to flying [[moth]]s, which are extremely resistant enemies. There are some [[wrong note]]s that, if not jumped over properly, will cause the player to lose a [[life]].

At the near end of this part, there is a string of [[Ting]]s which, when collected consecutively, play the French song ''Au Clair de la Lune''.

==Part 3==

[[File:MaracasRocket.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|[[Maracas rocket]]s allow [[Rayman]] to fly high in the skies of [[Band Land]].]]

[[Rayman]] will mainly use [[maracas rocket]]s to ascend this area. There are many [[prickly ball]]s that [[Rayman]] will need to avoid as it can cause the player to lose [[Life|lives]].

==Part 4==

[[File:LightningEyes.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|[[Lightning eyes]] throw bolts at [[Rayman]].]]

Acquiring the [[helicopter]] power in [[Allegro Presto]] makes it significantly easier to reach the [[cage]] to the right of the [[flying ring]], although it is still possible to do so without it.

==Part 5==

[[File:Tourniquet.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|[[Rayman]] on a [[turnstile]], surrounded by [[prickly ball]]s]]

There are many [[prickly ball]]s that will cause [[Rayman]] to fall from the [[turnstile]] and into the [[wrong note]]s. There are two secret areas in this level, but one is much harder than the other.

==Part 6==

[[File:RedMonster.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|[[Mad drummer]]s are the tallest enemies in the game.]]

This is the only level along with the PlayStation version of [[Moskito's Nest]] in part 4 and [[Eat at Joe's]] in part 4 to not have any [[cage]]s and not involve a boss, although due to the fact that part 1 has been cut in ''[[Rayman Advance]]'', it places the missing [[cage]] here next to where in most versions an extra [[life]] would be found. While [[Rayman (Nintendo DSi)|the DSi version]] does include part 1, it still places the [[cage]] at the same location as in ''[[Rayman Advance]]'' making [[Rayman (Nintendo DSi)|the DSi version]] have a total of 7 [[cage]]s in the level.

==The seventh [[cage]] glitch==

Due to [[Rayman (Nintendo DSi)|the Nintendo DSi version]] of the game having a [[cage]] at the first and final phase, it makes it the only version to have a total of 7 [[cage]]s in Bongo Hills. This was likely not intended by the developers as the level still displays the total amount of [[cage]]s as 6, like any other level. The only way to break all 7 [[cage]]s is if the player plays through the level first, breaking all [[cage]]s but the two in part 4. Then when the player replays the level and reaches part 4, both [[cage]]s will be loaded in the game. Breaking the seventh [[cage]] will simply result in the [[cage]] breaking normally without the medallion appearing. The reason this is the only way of breaking the seventh [[cage]] is because the game only checks for any non-broken [[cage]]s when a new part of the level is loaded and only if the player has less than 6 [[cage]]s broken in that level.<ref>YouTube, ''Rayman DSi-ware - 7 Cages in Bongo Hills'', https://youtu.be/q3MVTsHAxBg</ref>

This glitch can be used to unlock [[Mr Dark's Dare]] with one missing [[cage]] in another level, provided Bongo Hills is the last level the player completes when reaching a total of 102 [[cage]]s. This is because the game recalculates the amount of [[cage]]s upon entering the world map, but only after checking for the final level's unlock criterion.<ref>YouTube, ''Why Rayman 1 DSi is amazing: Extra Cage'', https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ZwmJZcRI2RE</ref>
