'''Rollercoaster Challenge''' is a mini-game level from ''[[Rayman Revolution]]''. In ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', it formed the first segment of [[the Top of the World]].


==Description==
Located deep in the swamps is a special chair—anybody who rides it finds themselves on a wild rollarcoaster ride through many dangerous obstacles.  Unlike ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', in which the ride begins in a [[The Canopy|Canopy]]-like setting then passes through a forest and some pipes, the ride in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' begins in a swamp, passes through a forest and then arrives at a seaside cliff covered in barren rock and dead trees. In both versions, many [[Robo-Pirate Army|pirate]] fortresses stand in the chair's way.
Located deep in the [[Marshlands|swamp]] is a special chair--anybody who rides it finds themselves on a wild rollarcoaster ride through many dangerous obstacles.  In ''Rayman 2'', the ride passes through a forest and some pipes (it is also well to note that in ''Rayman 2'' the ride begins in a [[The Canopy|Canopy]]-like setting instead of a swamp). In ''Revolution'', the ride passes through a forest and then arrives at a seaside cliff covered in barren rock and dead trees. In both versions, many [[Robo-Pirate Army|Pirate]] fortresses stand in the chair's way.


==As a Level==
Before [[Rayman]] may request that [[Ly the Fairy]] takes him to the Rollercoaster Challenge, Rayman must have collected ten [[Familiar Spirits]]. Afterwards, the Rollercoaster Challenge will always be accessible from [[Ly's House]], [[Ly's Stele]], and [[Ly's Cave]].
The chair ride is a unique segment of the game in which the player must tilt the control stick/pad left or right to spin a speeding chair either clockwise or counter-clockwise so as to avoid incoming obstacles. However, the story behind the chair is different depending on the version.


===''Rayman 2''/''Rayman DS''===
After [[Ly]] transports him to the swamp, [[Rayman]] must leap onto a speeding chair. The chair sends him on a wild ride through forests, mountains, and other scenic locations. The player must tilt the control stick left or right to spin a speeding chair either clockwise or counter-clockwise so as to avoid incoming obstacles. The Rollercoaster Challenge is [[Rayman]]'s first opportunity to increase his HP bar in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]''. However, to do so, each of the twenty [[Red Lum]]s must be collected—if [[Rayman]] misses even one, completing the ride will not count and he must start over again without any [[Red Lum]]s.
Before [[Rayman (character)|Rayman]] arrives at the beginning of [[the Top of the World]] level, an [[Ape Pirate]] rides the chair out of a hidden [[The Top of the World|Robo-Pirate Fortress]]. It lands on a small cliff with a crash, and gets up just as [[Rayman]] arrives via a [[Magic Spiral Door]]. The Ape Pirate is quick to attack Rayman, but Rayman dodges onto the chair. Suddenly, the chair takes off, rendering [[Rayman]] almost helpless. He must dodge pipes, fortresses, lasers, and grates before he may successfully arrive at the fortress.
 
===''Revolution''===
Before [[Rayman]] may request that [[Ly the Fairy]] takes him to the Rollercoaster Challenge, Rayman must have collected ten [[Familiar Spirits]].  Afterwards, the Rollercoaster Challenge will always be accessible from [[Ly's House]], [[Ly's Stele]], and [[Ly's Cave]].
 
After [[Ly]] transports [[Rayman]] to the swamp, Rayman must leap onto a speeding chair. The chair sends him on a wild ride through forests, mountains, and other scenic locations. To successfully complete the level, however, Rayman must collect every [[Red Lum]] -if he misses even one, completing the ride will not count and he must start over again without any [[Red Lum]]s.
 
The Rollercoaster Challenge is Rayman's first opportunity to increase his HP bar in ''Revolution''. However, to do so, every Red Lum must be collected. The Rollercoaster Challenge in ''Revolution'' is notably more difficult than its ''Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2'' counterpart, especially due to this added requirement.
