'''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.

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>~~The seventh cage glitch showcase on~~ YouTube, 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>
