Taking place supposedly a short while after the events in ''[[Rayman 3]]'', the games begins with [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] sleeping in [[The Fairy Council (Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge)|the Fairy Council]], when [[Globox]]'s dreams are disturbed by the memory of him swallowing the [[Black Lum]] [[André]]. He is awakened by a strange sound, and goes off to search for its source. Later, [[Rayman]] awakens up to find that [[Globox]] is missing, and goes off to look for him.

He is awakened by a strange sound, and goes off to search for its source. Later, [[Rayman]] awakens up to find that [[Globox]] is missing, and goes off to look for him.


As he progresses onward, [[Rayman]] is told by [[Murfy]] that the [[Hoodlum]]s are trying to clone [[Reflux]]; the other main rival of ''[[Rayman 3]]'', and that the clone is [[plum juice]]-powered. Before he finally meets up with [[Globox]], he must destroy [[the Infernal Machine]], which manufactures the potent [[plum juice]]. It is later discovered that it is [[Globox]] himself who is being turned into [[Reflux#Appearance_in_Rayman:_Hoodlums.27_Revenge|Reflux's clone]].

''Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge's'' gameplay uses some elements from ''[[Rayman 3]]'', including the score counter and the Combo-mode, [[Teensie]] [[cage]]s and [[Laser-Washing Powder]] cans. [[Hoodlum]]s and other enemies from ''[[Rayman 3]]'' are also encountered. The difference is that [[Lum]]s, namely [[Yellow Lum|Yellow]], [[Red Lum|Red]], [[Green Lum|Green]] and [[Blue Lum]]s, are collected as well as [[jewel]]s. In each level, there is a certain number of [[Yellow Lum]]s to collect, and typically there are four [[cage]]s to break, both of which are counted down; the more the player collects and the higher he or she scores, the more likely he or she is to gain up to three [[Murfy Stamp]]s, which are needed to unlock bonus levels.

==Trivia==

* On the North American box art of the game, there is a typographical error whereby the apostrophe is placed between the word ‘Hoodlum’ and the letter ‘s’, making the subtitle seem as if there is only one [[Hoodlum]] rather than a group of them.

* Although this is not a Game Boy Advance version of ''[[Rayman 3]]'' (but rather, a direct sequel), it does mark many ''[[Rayman 3]]'' characters' first and only appearance on handheld, many of which were absent from [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the actual Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']]. These characters include [[Reflux]], [[Roméo Patti]] (referred to as Doc), and [[Bégoniax]] (though there was a level in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] called [[Swamp of Bégoniax]] but the character never actually appeared). It is possibly [[André]]'s first appearance in a handheld game, although the [[Black Lum]] swallowed by [[Globox]] in ''[[Rayman 3]]'' may be him, simply unnamed and with a smaller role. [[André]] does not strictly appear in this game, as he merely possesses [[Globox]].

* There is a curious inconsistency in [[Roméo Patti|Roméo]]'s appearance in this game. He gives his name as "Doc" not [[Roméo Patti|Roméo]], and [[Rayman]] does not appear to recognise him, despite meeting him in ''[[Rayman 3]]''.

*In the first level, [[Rayman]] tells [[Murfy]] that he has been able to use his [[helicopter]] power all his life. However, he did not have that ability at the start of [[Rayman 1|the first game]].
