===Phase 1===

As the player enters the level for the first time, a short cutscene is played. The [[Spyglass Pirate]] informs [[Admiral Razorbeard]] that [[Rayman]] has retrieved [[Four Masks of Polokus|the third mask]]. A furious [[~~Admiral Razorbeard|~~Razorbeard]] warns him to make sure [[Rayman]] doesn't get [[Four Masks of Polokus|the last mask]]. The level then begins with [[Rayman]] emerging from a [[Spiral Door]] onto some stairs. Once he climbs down he encounters a [[Robo-Pirate]] sign saying that ’[[Clark]] was captured here before being brought to the [[Technical Check-up]].’ After hitting a [[switch]] that opens a door, [[Rayman]] is attacked by a [[Spider (Rayman 2)|spider]] through a tomb until he reaches a few platforms sticking out of the water. Here, he must descend into the pit to activated a [[switch]], while being pursued by a [[Spider (Rayman 2)|spider]], and then escalate out using the spider web. Then, climbing on to previous platforms, he reaches a passage with three possible routes. The left one leads to another platforming section where he has to avoid a [[Red Henchman 800]], a [[Spider (Rayman 2)|spider]] and a disembodied [[arm]] similar to the one encountered in [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]]. There is a crashed [[warship]] in this section. The right one is a graveyard with more disembodied [[arm]]s and another [[Red Henchman 800]]. Both of these contain [[switch]]es that must be activated in order to progress further. Once the [[switch]]es have been activated, [[Rayman]] must return to the passage and go forward, jumping across platforms and avoiding [[piranha]]s. Once he reaches the uppermost platform he has to jump down a hole to get to the next stage.

The last platforming part features a secret passage which the player can access by jumping to the left once near the end of the phase. In the wall is a gap where a secret room can be found down some stairs. In this room, the player will have to fight several waves of [[Henchman 800|Henchmen 800]] before finding the [[1000th Yellow Lum]] necessary to obtain 100% completion of the game. If [[1000th Yellow Lum|this Lum]] remains uncollected, the game will be 99.9% complete, and even after it is collected the game screen will only display a total of 999 [[Yellow Lum]]s.

===Phase 2===

[[Rayman]] finds himself in front of a gate. After [[Magic fist|shooting]] the nearby cogs enough times to fully open it, [[Rayman]] jumps down onto a floating [[keg]]. He then rides the floating [[keg]]s and maneuvers up spiderwebs to reach the next barrel, avoiding electrical fences, [[~~zombie chicken~~]]s and [[Henchman 800|Henchmen 800s]]. A shortcut exists here where the player can skip a portion of the level by not entering a pipe. This phase also appears as two phases in the Nintendo 64 and [[Rayman DS|Nintendo DS]] versions. After executing another platform jump, [[Rayman]] once again rides a floating [[keg]] where he must avoid a [[Robo-Pirate|pirate]] throwing [[keg]]s at him from higher ground and then climb up into the [[Robo-Pirate|pirate]] stronghold and defeat him. Once the [[Robo-Pirate|pirate]] is defeated, a [[Purple Lum]] will appear. [[Rayman]] must use this [[Purple Lum]] to reach a net and climb up towards the next phase.

===Phase 3===

The final phase begins with [[Rayman]] running across a narrow stretch of ground with polluted water towards the left, before reaching a door with a small [[Robo-Pirate|pirate]] sign saying ‘[[Technical Check-up]]’ adjacent to it. (It is at this point that the entrance to the [[Tomb of the Ancients secret]] is hidden.) After opening the [[Technical Check-Up]] door, a small cutscene plays where [[Rayman]] and [[Clark]] are initially overjoyed to find each other before it is revealed that [[Clark]] has had a controlling device implanted on his back and is being controlled by the [[Spyglass Pirate]] from another room.

A boss fight ensues in which [[Rayman]] must activate a [[laser]] by hitting three [[switch]]es, then tricking [[Clark]] into tripping over it in order to attack the controlling device. Once the controlling device is destroyed, [[Clark]] is restored to his normal self. [[Rayman]] climbs onto [[Clark]]'s back to destroy the final [[cage]], freeing a [[Teensie]] who then opens a [[Spiral Door]]. [[Rayman]] is then transported back to [[the Hall of Doors]].
