'''Tings''', also known as '''crystals''' and '''blue spheres''', are collectible items found in all of the first generation ''[[Rayman (series)|Rayman]]'' games.

A '''Ting''' is a collectable item in ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]''. It is a small blue crystal ball that is found scattered across the region in large numbers, often leading [[Rayman]] to hidden [[cage|cages]] or to safety. Collecting 100 Tings gets [[Rayman]] a bonus [[life]] and resets his Ting count back to 0, but he will lose all Tings he is currently holding if he loses a life. It is also apparently used as some kind of currency, as ten Tings are needed to be paid to the [[Magician]] in order to enter one of his [[bonus level]]s.
==In ''Rayman''==
{{Quote|text=If [[Rayman]] picks up one hundred of them, he gains an extra [[life]], but they can also be used to pay [[the Magician]] (who'll give you access to [[Bonus level (Rayman 1)|bonus stages]]).

In [[Rayman Designer]], there are Tings of various colours, used to open doors.
[[File:Foret1PC.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|Tings are abundant in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]].]]


In [[Rayman Junior]], Tings are referred to as "Bubbles".
In [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], Tings are small blue crystal balls found scattered in large numbers throughout almost every level, often leading [[Rayman]] to a hidden [[cage]] or to safety. Collecting 100 Tings gets [[Rayman]] a bonus [[life]] and resets his Ting count to zero. In [[Rayman (Nintendo DSi)|the Nintendo DSi-Ware version]], only 50 Tings are required for a new [[life]]. If [[Rayman]] loses a [[life]], he also loses all Tings he is currently holding, except in [[Rayman Advance|the Game Boy Advance]] and [[Rayman (Nintendo DSi)|Nintendo DSi-Ware]] versions. They can also be used to open up [[Bonus level (Rayman 1)|bonus levels]]: 10 is enough to pay the [[the Magician]] and enter one of his [[Bonus level (Rayman 1)|bonus levels]]. There are over 2000 of them in the game, and the numbers are different across versions. The exact Ting counts are as follows:
* PlayStation (EU, US): 2119
* PlayStation (JP): 2128
* PC (1.00): 2179
* PC (1.10, 1.21): 2244
* [[Rayman (Atari Jaguar)|Jaguar]]: 2071


In the [[Rayman (GBC)|Game Boy Color version]] of the game, Tings are revealed to be tiny fairies.
In the help menu of ''[[Rayman Ultimate]]'', a port of the game for the Pocket PC, Tings are referred to as crystals.


In the 2D beta version of [[Rayman 2]], Tings are silvery and metallic.

In ''[[Maths and English with Rayman]]'', [[Betilla]] the Fairy and [[the Magician]] refer to Tings as "'''Bubbles'''" and the manual calls them "'''blue bubbles'''". Only 50 are needed to gain an extra [[life]]; however, this is the only way to get more of them. There are 2273 of them. In some levels, certain Tings cannot be collected, because they lead to wrong answers.

==In ''Rayman Designer''==
[[File:Designer Ting Colours.png|thumb|316px|class=sprite|The seven different Ting colours seen in ''[[Rayman Designer]]''.]]
 
In ''[[Rayman Designer]]'', Tings exist in seven different colours; collecting all Tings of a specific colour will trigger [[Event (Rayman Designer)|events]] if they are connected to either a [[Gendoor|Ting Gendoor]] or a [[Killdoor|Ting Killdoor]]. There is a total of 2400 blue Tings - 100 in each level - and, if all have been collected, the [[Exit sign|exit]] will open up. Of the other six colours, five - purple, green, bronze, silver and gold - are used to open up passages, while red Tings are used to reveal a few extra [[Life|lives]].

==In the Game Boy Color version of ''Rayman''==
In [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color version of ''Rayman'']], Tings play a much larger role in the story. Here, they are revealed to be tiny [[Fairy|fairies]] inside glass spheres. These Tings wake [[Rayman]] up from his slumber at the beginning of the game to warn him of [[Mr Dark]]'s plot, and continue to provide instruction throughout the duration of [[Rayman]]'s adventure. They also grant him new powers at certain points in the game, essentially taking on the role [[Betilla]] the Fairy played in [[Rayman 1|the original version]]. Only 30 Tings are needed to gain an extra [[life]] here, and none are required to enter a [[Bonus level (Rayman 1)|bonus level]]. There are only 1184 Tings in this version of the game.
