The level begins with a cinematic involving a conversation between [[Admiral Razorbeard]] and [[Admiral Razorbeard's Lackey|his lackey]]. The lackey informs Razorbeard that [[Rayman (character)|Rayman]] has arrived at the swamp. Admiral Razorbeard chomps down on a [[Yellow Lum]] lowering the Yellow Lum maximum to 999. He then orders Rayman to be stopped. The scene ends with warships dropping down from ''[[the Buccaneer]]''.

The scene ends with warships dropping down from ''[[the Buccaneer]]''.


Rayman arrives at the bayou.  As he enters, a [[Warship]] descends from the sky and prepares to bombard Rayman. Rayman, unable to swim through the green swampy waters, hops aboard a barrel floating in the water. The barrel begins to float down the river at the same time that the warship begins releasing [[helicopter bomb]]s.

The barrel begins to float down the river at the same time that the warship begins releasing [[helicopter bomb]]s.


Shooting the bombs to avoid their explosions, Rayman arrives at a small bit of bare land. To the left is an old branch with a [[cage]], collecting the two [[Red Lums]] inside. From here he hops aboard another barrel, and floats down more of the river until he reaches the bottom of a canyon.  The warship is unable to reach him here and leaves. When Rayman goes to the top of the canyon, he sees a switch, and hits it. Rayman hops on the bridges and he goes into a cave. There a [[Robo-Pirate Army|Robo-Pirate]] sleeps.

After doing battle with a [[Robo-Pirate Army|Robo-Pirate]], Rayman finds himself swinging onto another barrel via [[Purple Lum]].  However, the waterfall he begins floating towards is haunted by [[Zombie Chicken|Zombie Chickens]], which rise from the murk and attack. Beyond the phantoms, Rayman leaps onto a log and oversees another warship flying above the bayou.

Rayman flutters down to a wooden bridge, but the warship immediately fires a cannonball.  Rayman dodges the cannonball quickly, but the bridge plummets into the water. Rayman rushes across bridge after bridge, and finally delves into a small cave.

This level is basically the same as the original versions except for some [[mosquito]]es, [[toad|frogs]] and more [[piranha]]s dotted around the landscape. The Walk of Life can be accessed as in the original version and can later be accessed again through the [[Isle of Doors]].

In the cutscene before the mission starts, the scene where Razorbeard ate a Yellow Lum was changed to him eating a Red Lum, because the PS1 version has only 800 lums and the hidden 1000th lum present in all other versions wasn't included (the lum was included in the area with 3 switches in other versions but this section was removed completely in the PS1 version).

The stone circle to the left of the entrance portal was also removed as it can be directly accessed from the Hall of Doors (which has no lum requirement).

The rest of the level remains the same except for some more Robo-Pirates.

In Phase 1, near the end of the level, there is a [[Yellow Lum]] on the side of the cliff. The last [[Purple Lum]] of the level has three yellow lums that you can swing and jump to get.

As Rayman walks out from the cave in Phase 2, he finds himself at a clearing. On the side of a cliff is a prison similar to [[Ly the Fairy|Ly]]'s from the [[Fairy's Glade]]. However, this time it holds a [[Moskito]] look-alike, [[Bzzit]]. Bzzit warns Rayman of an ambush, and soon Robo-Pirates [[Parachuting Pirate|parachute]] down to attack.  Rayman fights them off, but is quickly met with a new challenge.

A [[Henchman 800#Yellow|Yellow Robo-Pirate]] rises from the ground and begins firing its energy projectiles at Rayman. This is the strongest Robo-Pirate Rayman has fought so far in the game. Once he defeats it, [[Bzzit]] cheers for him, then tells him to meet him at [[the Pier]] in the [[Minisaurus Plains]]. Rayman nods, and pushes onwards.

In ''Revolution'', it is impossible to acquire all of the Bayou's [[Yellow Lum]]s on the first visit. The cliff overlooking the demon tree holds a dry plant bulb. After completing [[the Pirate Mines]], Rayman may use the [[Rain Dance]] to revitalise the bulb so that it grows into a large plant, which can be used as a platform to access the remaining Yellow Lums, which are otherwise inaccessible.
