'''Olympus Maximus''', also known as '''Mount Elysium''' in ''[[Rayman Legends Retold]]'', is the fifth world of ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' and [[Rayman Legends Retold|its remake]] and the second world in ''[[Rayman Adventures]]''. It is a world inspired by mythology and paganism, mainly those of Ancient Greece. It features four different themes, which in ''[[Rayman Adventures]]'' are named Palace Ruins, Islands in the Sky, Minotaur's Maze and Fiery Depths. The main enemies are the [[minotaur]]s, who appear in all of these environments. | |||

One of the most important environments of this world is that of the labyrinth. These labyrinths are vast closed structures constructed in grey stone. On the walls, complicated diagrams appear, or sometimes symbols, such as a stylised "H", which resembles a gate of Hell and probably references Hades. These structures and diagrams on the walls probably reference the labyrinths of ancient mythology, most notably that constructed on Crete by Daedalus to imprison the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minotaur Minotaur] (the creature which inspired [[Minotaur|the main enemies of this world]]). Sometimes, huge floating stone cubes appear as elements of the scenery. In the ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' level [[Hell Breaks Loose]], we learn that [[Dragon (Olympus Maximus)|dragons]] live among these floating cubes. These [[Dragon (Olympus Maximus)|dragons]] might reference oriental mythology. | One of the most important environments of this world is that of the labyrinth.

The walls are often covered with spikes, and numerous [[buzzsaw]]s appear on the paths through the labyrinths, which makes these sections resemble somewhat the factories of the [[Moody Clouds]] of ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. Little turrets appear on the walls, which shoot flaming swords which follow the heroes (like the missiles shot by the [[hunter]]s or the turrets of the [[Moody Clouds]] and [[20,000 Lums | The walls are often covered with spikes, and numerous [[buzzsaw]]s appear on the paths through the labyrinths, which makes these sections resemble somewhat the factories of the [[Moody Clouds]] of ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. Little turrets appear on the walls, which shoot flaming swords which follow the heroes (like the missiles shot by the [[hunter]]s or the turrets of the [[Moody Clouds]] and [[20,000 Lums Under the Sea]]). To progress in these sections, the heroes must use their power to run on the walls quite often. Another detail of this environment, which is quite strange, is the fact that drums sometimes appear, which bounce the heroes when they jump on them. Some sections invert the screen, which increases the difficulty of the puzzles. | ||

In this labyrinth, the heroes again meet the [[Dark Teensy|Dark Teensie]], who is oiling the wings of his flying contraption. When he sees them, he calls some [[Dragon (Olympus Maximus)|dragons]] from the depths of the labyrinths, who come and chase the heroes, and escapes from the place. The heroes must avoid the dragons by running on the floors, the walls and the ceilings of the labyrinth, before using a [[Champibumper]] to return to the Underworld, where [[Murfy]] helps them use jets of lava to kill their pursuers. | In this labyrinth, the heroes again meet the [[Dark Teensy|Dark Teensie]], who is oiling the wings of his flying contraption.

Olympus Maximus returns in ''[[Rayman Legends Retold]]'', a remake of ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', now known as '''Mount Elysium'''. The world presumably contains every level featured in the original game, and while it has not been confirmed yet, the world likely features a [[Forest dragon|dragon]]-riding level. | |||
