A '''cage''' is a small breakable prison that contains innocent creatures who have been captured by hostile characters, such as [[Robo-Pirate]]s or [[Hoodlum]]s. It is [[Rayman]]'s objective in all five major games, as well as some spin-offs such as [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|''Rayman 3'' for the Game Boy Advance]] and ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]'', to destroy every single cage there is and release the prisoners inside them. Cages are possibly the most commonly recurring objects in [[Rayman (series)|the ''Rayman'' series]].  
'''Cages''' are small breakable prisons which contain captive creatures or [[Lums]], who have been jailed within by enemy groups, such as the [[Robo-Pirate]]s or [[Hoodlum]]s. Cages are a key gameplay element, featuring in all five major titles in the series, and many spin-offs, such as the [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] and ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]''. It is likely that they are the most commonly recurring objects that players encounter within the series.

This time, the only creatures that are trapped inside cages are various tribes of [[Teensie]]s that have been captured by the [[Hoodlum]]s, who have imprisoned them in 60 cages total. As in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', not all of them have to be destroyed in order to advance to the final boss level. Akin to [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'']], each cage that is destroyed fills up a medallion, though this time when each medallion is filled with 6 cages, the size of [[Rayman]]'s life bar increases, giving him a higher maximum of health. The captive [[Teensie]]s will often reward Rayman when be breaks their cages, either with a [[Laser-Washing Powder]] power-up, or with [[jewels]] that the hero can collect to obtain points, and then disappear after a quick remark.

There are a total of 60 cages that are scattered throughout the game, in levels that contain cages, there are four to be found, making for 15 levels that contain cages.
