'''Spiders''' are enemies found in the [[Blue Mountains]] and [[the Caves of Skops]] in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], ''[[Maths and English with Rayman]]'' and ''[[Rayman Designer]]''. In [[Rayman 1|the original game]], they only appear in [[Crystal Palace]] and [[Eat at Joe's]]. With their plunger-like feet, they are very different from the variety which can be found in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', its remakes, and [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']].

Spiders wander freely on their platforms, turning backwards when they reach an obstacle. When [[Rayman]] is in sight, they climb to the ceiling of the caves, and start firing homing stingers at him. It is, however, possible to defeat them before they climb to the ceiling. They can also duck to avoid [[Rayman]]'s [[telescopic fist]]. In [[Rayman (Atari Jaguar)|the Atari Jaguar version]], they do not jump onto the ceiling when they spot [[Rayman]], but simply turn their backs and start shooting at him; they also do not duck to avoid [[Rayman]]'s [[telescopic fist]], and their stingers follow a straight trajectory.

Spiders are among the quickest enemies in the game, and the best solution is sometimes to run away from them.

In ''[[Rayman Designer]]'', there are three types of spiders available, with only the normal one being available in [[Blue Mountains|the Mountain world]].

*'''Ceiling spider''' - Hangs onto the ceiling. Only available in [[The Caves of Skops|the Cave world]].

*'''Climbing spider''' - Starts by moving on the ground, then jumps up to the ceiling when close to [[Rayman]]. Only available in [[The Caves of Skops|the Cave world]].
