Swinging Caves: Difference between revisions

The heroes land in a clearing, surrounded by five mysterious pillars with [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lums]] on top. This is the location of [[Rayman]]'s birth in the ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' E3 2010 trailer, although there are several conflicting accounts of [[Rayman]]'s creation. One account, found in the ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' website and manual, states that it is the five [[nymph]]s who created [[Rayman]], not just [[Betilla]]. The five bright and luminous pillars could represent the [[nymph]]s. There are many [[Water lily|water lilies]] ahead, along with two [[Livingstone|Lividstones]]. There are two [[Skull Coin]]s near the end of the area. For the first one, the heroes will have to drop down cautiously, as there is an abyss below, and the [[water lily]] on which the heroes need to land moves horizontally. The second [[Skull Coin]] can be found to the far left of the first [[Skull Coin]], hiding behind some foreground vines; contact with the vines will make them disappear, revealing the [[Skull Coin]]. The exit is not far from here; the heroes will need to make use of the remaining [[Water lily|water lilies]] and perform wall jumps to reach it.

The heroes must use a [[Swingman]] to cross the water. The first secret area can be found to the top left of a platform where three [[Livingstone|Lividstones]] are located. Afterwards, the heroes can proceed to a large body of [[tentacle claw]]-infested water. To proceed, they will need to jump on the moving [[Water lily|water lilies]]. Taking the higher path will require activating a [[bouncy flower]]; using it will lead to the third [[Skull Coin]], located underneath a platform which will collapse and threaten to crush the heroes. The exit can be found nearby, but the heroes will need to dodge a [[tentacle claw]] in another body of water, then climb up and defeat two [[Livingstone|Lividstones]] along the way.

There are seven [[Livingstone|Lividstones]] in this area, all standing between wooden barriers. The heroes need to perform a [[crush attack]] onto a large [[bouncy flower]] to reach the top and destroy the [[Livingstone|Lividstones]]. The [[Electoon]] [[cage]] is at the bottom left of the area. This area is likely a reference to the mobile game ''Angry Birds''.

As the heroes enter this very short area, they will encounter some water currents and eventually descend to a vine. Once the heroes grab onto the vine and drop down to a [[water lily]], they will need to be careful, as there is an abyss below. The fourth [[Skull Coin]] is in this area at the bottom left of a wall; the heroes will need to jump off the wall as soon as they collect it. The second secret area is located to the right of the [[water lily]], and like the first secret area, there are foreground vines hiding the door. Once completed, the heroes can use a [[Swingman]] to advance to the exit, which is guarded by a [[Livingstone|Lividstone]].

In this final area before reaching the [[cage]], the heroes will need to ascend to reach the exit. First, a [[Swingman]] will assist them in reaching a [[bouncy flower]], and then they will be led to another [[Swingman]]. After using it to ascend to a vine, the heroes continue past a couple of platforms; the second platform has a geyser at the end, which will push the heroes to the exit.

The heroes must battle several [[Livingstone|Lividstones]] scattered throughout the area. Once they are defeated, the [[cage]] can be broken, thus ending the level. [[The Magician (Rayman Origins)|The Magician]] will then wait as the total amount of [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lums]] collected throughout the level is counted, as the heroes pose on a [[The Photographer|photoboard]].
